ONHP is about to open ONHP-based faculties of OmGU, OmGTU and SibADI in the forthcoming academic year.  Students of these faculties will get practice-oriented education applying material and technical base with participation of ONHP employees. For OmGTU it will be the 8th company-based faculty.

ONHP top-management comments on the faculty establishment contract execution:

“It is not a secret that there is a significant difference between theoretical and practical knowledge and work by profession and the companies have their own regards in respect to university education improvement. By opening ONHP-based faculties, ONHP proceeds with its work aimed at the development of engineering activities in the region and creates innovational platform of complex and dual staff training to prepare engineers in demand for the country industry”.

According to the statement made by OmGTU to OMSKREGION, education at company-based faculties will give advantages to students. It shall enable to get additional knowledge, split the time between theory and practice in the best possible proportion and to adapt to the future profession.

“In general, there is nothing new in establishing company-based faculties. Traditionally our university had close cooperation with real economy enterprises.    In the Soviet period such approach was commonly used by all leading Omsk Higher Education Institutions. During Perestroika period (political movement during the 1980s to restructure the Soviet political and economic system) this type of cooperation began to fade. But even in hard times the Technical University managed to keep several company-based faculties, namely at ONIIP JSC and the Institute of Hydrocarbons Problems. Within the last 7 years we started restoring the faculties which were closed down and establishing new ones", said Mr. Aleksandr Myshlyavtsev, OmGTU vice-rector for academic affairs.  

According to OmGTU vice-rector, by the time when initiatives to establish applied bachelor degree and company-based faculties at industrial enterprises were suggested by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, Omsk State Technical University had already concluded contracts on establishing company-based faculties with 6 enterprises and research institutions. The contract executed with Omskneftekhimproekt JSC is the eighth in succession for OmGTU.

OmGU named after F.M. Dostoyevsky is also expecting to benefit from ONHP-based training for students of specific specialties.

The main benefit for a higher education institution is to improve teaching and learning activities, involve advanced practices of the leading companies and eventually assure compliance of education with public and economic needs. Thanks to establishing of company-based faculties Omsk enterprises will engage young specialists with the competences required at the moment" said Ms. Valeriya Mamaeva, OmGU Marketing Department Head.
