History

The history of the establishment and development of the Academy and its scientific and pedagogical schools is inseparably connected with the development of industry, science, and education in Ukraine.

The National Metallurgical Academy of Ukraine is the oldest higher metallurgical educational institution in Ukraine. It was founded as a factory department of the Ekaternoslav Higher Mining School in October 1899. In 1912, the department was transformed into the metallurgical faculty of the Mining Institute, which later became the Dnipro Metallurgical Institute in 1930. In 1993, the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine granted the Institute the status of a state university. In 1999, the Decree of the President of Ukraine granted it the status of the National Academy.

Structure

The Academy is composed of 7 full-time faculties (metallurgical, engineering, mechanical engineering, materials science and processing of metals, economy, and management of computer systems, energy and automation; humanities), correspondence courses, technical schools, scientific research department, postgraduate study, and doctoral studies.

At the Academy, there are 14 scientific schools in different directions. Widely known in Ukraine and abroad: Dnepropetrovsk Scientific School of theoretical and applied materials science, Ukrainian fundamental school of electrometallurgical engineers and heat-treaters, as well as schools in such areas as metallurgy of iron and steel, metallurgical heat engineering, heat-and-power engineering, metallurgical equipment, metal forming, etc.

Accommodation

In addition to the above, the structure of the Academy consists of a regional center of education for disabled people, the state Institute for the training and retraining of personnel, a library, faculty for advanced training of professors and specialists, foreign students department, preparatory department, sport-recreation camp “Friendship”. Five comfortable hostels provide housing to all non-resident and foreign students.

International Cooperation

The Academy cooperates on international agreements, programs, projects, and grants with universities, companies, and scientists from the United States, Germany, Sweden, Finland, Italy, Japan, Moldova, and other countries of the world. On the initiative of NMetAUa consortium of five technical universities: Germany, Sweden, Finland, Poland, and Ukraine was founded and an integrated curriculum of training in “Metallurgy” was developed.
