Metinvest Polytechnica will cooperate with the manufacturer of mine rescue equipment DEZEGA

Opportunities to learn how to work with equipment for saving lives and preserving health will appear for students and teachers of the new university, as well as those wishing to improve their qualifications in this direction.

DEZEGA specialists will participate in the formation of the academic disciplines of Metinvest Polytechnic for labor protection, including in mountain conditions. Students and teachers of the university will be able to familiarize themselves with world trends in the design, use and selection of personal respiratory protection equipment and study rescue technologies in practice. For this, it is planned to include laboratory and practical exercises using DEZEGA equipment in the curriculum.

In addition, cooperation involves the development of joint educational programs for students and teachers, including programs for passing industrial practice for university students. It is also planned to conduct joint testing and testing of respiratory protection devices developed or produced by DEZEGA within the framework of dual education.

To improve the qualifications of the staff, Metinvest Polytechnic and DEZEGA intend to exchange educational materials and scientific publications.
