“KAI-Park”

An extensive network of independent but integrated engineering centers called “KAI-Park” is being created in all major activity areas of the University. Thus, the ”KAI-Nanotechnologies” engineering center is involved in developing and applying advanced nanotechnologies in machine-building. Taking into consideration that today composite technologies are essential for all industrial branches such as shipbuilding, helicopter and aircraft engineering, car- manufacturing and power, an engineering center “KAI-Composite” has been set up.  The “KAI-Resource” testing center provides a wide range of special facilities for testing any section or unit of airplanes and helicopters. The specialists of the “Nano-Electronics” center are involved in developing single-wall carbon nanotubes that improve composite materials characteristics. There are plans for the creation of two more centers – “Kai-Electronics” and “Kai-Engine” where all research conducted in the field of modern nano- and micro-electronics as well as in engine-building will be focused.

“KAI-Grad”

“KAI-Grad” is a student campus that is being constructed in the territory of KNRTU-KAI named after A.N. Tupolev. The complex shall facilitate the effective organization of educational and training processes that meet up-to-date requirements of a research university. It will consist of 5 training and laboratory buildings with a total area of 150 thousand sq m. according to the general development plan.
