After the war is over, experts believe the country will need builders and architects, engineers and IT specialists, transport and logistics workers, and others.

After all, engineers are primarily the creators of new, advanced things, aimed at progress in society. And the example of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute graduates is a confirmation of this.
Deepening cooperation between the academic community and the manufacturing sector, combining education and industry to train a new generation of engineers, contributes to their future employment at modern production facilities with the possibility of further training and development, with decent salaries and broad career prospects.
