About the faculty

The Department of Telecommunications and Radio Electronic Systems of the National Aviation University “Kyiv Aviation Institute” is an educational and research division that has been training specialists in telecommunications, radio engineering, and information and communication systems since 1965. The department combines a classical engineering school with modern technologies in networking, cybersecurity, and digital services.

Education is provided at the bachelor’s, master’s, and PhD levels. Students study telecommunication networks, IP telephony, 5G/6G technologies, cybersecurity, and signal processing while gaining practical skills in network protocols, QoS, and AI solutions.

The educational process is based on modern laboratories, including the KAI Huawei Excellence Center, Vodafone, Viatec, and specialized R&D laboratories. Students work with real equipment, network emulators, and software platforms for testing telecommunication solutions.

The department cooperates with leading IT and telecommunications companies, providing opportunities for internships, practical training, and participation in joint projects. Students are involved in international academic programs, research initiatives, and competitions, while graduates work in telecommunications, networking technologies, cybersecurity, and software development.

The Department of ACS at KAI (Kyiv Aviation Institute) trains hands-on engineers who create the "intelligence" for modern aircraft. We specialize in control systems, avionics, and robotics. Here, you will learn to design everything from autopilots to complex autonomous systems for aviation and DefenseTech.

We offer programs in UAV engineering, robotics programming, and avionics maintenance. Students master C++ and Python, learn to program microcontrollers, and develop navigation algorithms. Our curriculum bridges fundamental theory with the development of embedded computer systems.

Training takes place in the state-of-the-art Ajax Next Avia laboratory and the NAURocket design bureau. You will work with professional-grade equipment: STM32 controllers, Lidars, GPS systems, and flight stacks (ArduPilot, PX4). You will have the opportunity to transform your ideas into real prototypes of rockets and drones.

We involve students in R&D projects from their very first years. Through collaborations with Baykar and Boeing Ukraine, you can develop computer vision algorithms and intelligent control systems. Our students turn software code into functioning hardware and win international hackathons.

Thanks to our dual education system, you can officially work at Boeing, Antonov State Enterprise, or Ajax Systems even before graduation. Our alumni are highly sought-after embedded systems architects and UAV software developers. Furthermore, Erasmus+ international programs offer opportunities for studying and internships abroad.
