Achievements and awards. The program underwent state accreditation in 2020.
In 2016 the student team took the second place at the All-Russian Olympiad in Petroleum Chemistry held at Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas.
Teaching staff. The educational program is implemented by five teachers including two Doctors and three Candidates of Engineering Sciences.
Facilities and resources. The department has learning laboratories of chemical engineering of oil fuels and gas, industrial ecology. To implement the educational and research process, the following facilities and resources are used: SetaStill device for determining the fractional composition of oil products at atmospheric pressure, Arnel 1115 chromatographic analyzer based on Clarus 580 gas chromatograph, GC-2014 AF/SPL gas chromatograph, Flexar liquid chromatograph for determining the mass fraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and other high-tech equipment.
Research. To carry out technological and environmental engineering calculations, state-of-the-art software packages are used. Research is conducted in the area of rational nature management, preparation and processing of raw hydrocarbons.
Education. The department trains highly qualified personnel for petroleum chemistry, oil and gas processing that will be able to manage the most complex technology and work at any enterprises that recover, transport and sell oil products. State-of-the-art educational technologies: multimedia lectures, case technologies, business games and role plays, the project method, round tables, etc. are used.
Strategic partners. Students do practical training under the work placement agreements with major enterprises of various Russian regions such as the Stavrolen chemical enterprise, the Ryazan Oil Refining Company. Employers regularly give positive feedback on a high level of employed graduates' competence.
Competitive advantages. The research laboratory of chemical engineering of motor fuels, oil and gas analysis has the following unique equipment: SETA-Petrodist 500Q installation for determining the fractional composition of oil and oil products under vacuum, the MCB universal catalytic installation, GC-2010 Plus AF IVD gas chromatograph.
