(Agreement N.)2011-2537
Project duration: 15 October 2011 – 14 October 2014
Due to the request of the IEMAST project team the project has been prolonged by EACEA until June 30, 2015.
Project Coordinator in Ukraine:NTUU "KPI".
Person in charge:Ievgen Nikiforovich –Doctor of Fluid Mechanics, Professor, Corresponding Member of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU), Institute of Hydromechanics NASU
Cathedra of Design Automation of Energy Processes and Systems(APEPS) of the Heat and Power Engineering Department is one of the most active participants of the project «TEMPUS-IEMAST», which is implemented in the NTUU "KPI". The project coordinator is the Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden) /KTHRoyalInstituteofTechnology, Sweden/ - one of the largest leading technical universities in Europe.
Target group: students, graduates, teaching staff; management of industry enterprises; local authorities; NGOs
Project goals and objectives:
The project is designed to create a base for preparing engineers capable of working on technological design of industrial and urban systems, industrial processes and consumer products taking into account environmental problems and given social and economic restrictions in Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine.
For more information about the direction of the project implementation and results of the main objectives refer to www.iemast.info.

Why APEPS Cathedra becomes a member of the project?
In June 2012 there was a UN Conference on Sustainable Development (SD) - RIO +20, where it was noted that the implementation of a new paradigm of sustainable development in countries with economies in transition economy (the transition to a "green economy") is possible only on the basis of partnership between government, business and the community.Manifestations of three (environmental, energy, social and economic) crisis cast doubt on the effectiveness of current models of SD and proved the necessity of finding more effective schemes fair production and consumption policies and criteria of success of economic activity that are consistent with long-term essential needs of mankind.
Ukraine supported the concept and principles of SD.But one of the major threats of the transition to a green economy Ukraine are defined, namely:
- Technological backwardness of fixed assets ecologically hazardous industries;
- Imperfect information system for environmental and energy monitoring that not allow Ukraine to attract investments into the environmental and energy-intensive enterprises;
- Imperfect information and communication space as a policy instrument green economy as a result of shortage of highly skilled human resources;
- Discrepancy ecological information technology infrastructure needs of a growing economy and society.
Bearing this in mind, training in the field of industrial ecology requires a multidisciplinary approach. This is especially true experts in the field of information, as in the present conditions that specifically address the problem of improving the efficiency of the economy system engineer to be armed with deep knowledge of environmental issues and the economy.
Therefore, training of specialists in the field of Industrial Ecology requires an interdisciplinary approach.
Especially interdisciplinary approach is implementedin the preparation of Master Program for direction “Computer ecology-economic monitoring”.
