Most Similar Schools Locally
- Anyone who wants a second school in the same country with a similar spread of agriculture, automation and mechanical engineering can consider Central Ukrainian National Technical University, and it is slightly smaller, at about 4,000 students against roughly 5,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- Both schools build their programmes around agriculture, automation and mechanical engineering, and Tavria State Agrotechnological University is the one to compare first within the country, since it covers food science and ecology and sustainability as well, and has almost the same size, at about 5,000 students.
- Where this institution leans on agriculture, process control and automation, Podilsky State University does the same, and it is slightly larger, at about 6,000 students against roughly 5,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- A good alternative in the same country is Kharkiv State University of Food Technology and Trade, which likewise covers automation, mechanical engineering and engineering; it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and covers food science and quality as well.
- Another national school that puts agriculture, automation and mechanical engineering at the centre is Lviv National Agrarian University, and it runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, and covers geotechnics and civil engineering as well.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
- Ivanovo State Power Engineering University, in Russia, takes a similar route through process control, automation and mechanical engineering; it is slightly larger, at about 6,000 students against roughly 5,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- In Russia, Kazan State Power Engineering University teaches much the same core subjects, process control, automation and mechanical engineering, and it covers thermodynamics and physics as well, and is slightly larger, at about 7,000 students against roughly 5,000 here.
- Kumoh National Institute of Technology, based in South Korea, is built around automation, mechanical engineering and engineering much like this university, and it runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, and has almost the same size, at about 5,000 students.
- University of Tehran in Iran is the nearest foreign match on agriculture, mechanical engineering and electrical and electronics; it covers civil engineering and chemistry as well, and is far larger, with about 41,000 students against roughly 5,000 here.
- A foreign alternative with a similar emphasis on agriculture and mechanical engineering is São Paulo State University in Brazil, and it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.
*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.
- Agriculture, Mechanical Engineering, Process Optimization, Product Development, Research and Development
*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
