Laboratories, design bureaus and production sections of enterprises are used for conducting academic classes and scientific research. Thesis project topics align with enterprise requirements, with numerous implementations successfully integrated into production processes.

Three departmental branches have been established: OJSC “LMZ Universal” Soligorsk, the State Scientific Institution “Institute of Technology of Metals of National Academy of Sciences of Belarus”, OJSC Baranavichy Machine Tool Plant (the branch of CJSC “Atlant”) which facilitate practice-oriented education and training of highly qualified specialists.

The graduates of the Faculty of Engineering are employed at the leading enterprises of the Republic of Belarus: UE “Niva-Holding”, JCJSC “BELDGI”, OJSC “BelAZ”, OJSC “The Grodno Lathe Chuck Plant BelTAPAZ”, JSC “Soligorsk Institute of Resources Saving Problems with Pilot Production”, OJSC “Kuzlitmash”, OJSC “Lidagroprommash”, OJSC “Minsk Bearing Plant”, OJSC “Minsk Gear Works”, OJSC “Kletsk Mechanical Plant”, OJSC “Druzhba Poultry Farm”, OJSC “Agrokombinat Mir”, EpolSoft, Epam Systems, CJSC “Top Soft”, PUE “Jazz Team”, LLC “Direct Partner”, LLC “Likelt”, etc.

The Student Scientific Society “SPECTR” coordinates students’ educational-research and scientific activities. Scientific circles for students function within the faculty’s departments. The outcomes of students’ scientific research projects are presented each year at the Republic Student Scientific Works Competition and applied research conferences, earning high commendations.

A comprehensive system of educational activities functions within the faculty, with the objective of cultivating civic responsibility, spiritual and moral values, aesthetic sensibilities, and a healthy lifestyle in prospective professionals.

The primary body of student self-government at the Engineering Faculty is the student council.

The Faculty includes three departments:
