The Faculty of Computer-Aided Design

The rapid development of computing devices, their penetration into various spheres of human activities, the growth of the society’s needs in easy and accessible forms of information processing and storing necessitates training of specialists in design and development of electronic computing devices of all kinds.

The Faculty of Computer-Aided Design (former Faculty of Design and Technology) was established in 1973. At the Faculty students are trained in ten specialties:

• Modeling and Computer-Aided Design of Radioelectronic Devices;

• Design and Manufacture of Computer-Controlled Electronic Devices;

• Programmable Mobile Systems;

• Computer-Controlled Digital Optical Systems;

• Medical Electronics;

• Electronic Computer Engineering;

• Human Engineering in Information Technologies;

• Electronic Safety Systems;

• Information Systems and Technologies (for Industrial Safety);

• Information Systems and Technologies (for Business Management).

Presently 149 highly-qualified lecturers are involved in the teaching process at the Faculty, including Professor Anatoly Dostanko, Doctor of Science in Engineering, Academician of the Belarusian National Academy of Sciences, Professor Leonid Gurski, Doctor of Science in Engineering, Corresponding Member of the Belarusian National Academy of Sciences, 13 Doctors of Science and Professors, 49 Associate Professors and PhDs. At the moment, the Faculty student body amounts to over 1400 people.

The Faculty is one of the most innovative and dynamically developing faculties in BSUIR. Its international, educational, scientific and production centers and laboratories provide training with the help of the most up-to-date equipment and software. Among them are the international educational and scientific centre "Android Software Center" created jointly with FORTE Knowledge company of Illinois Technology Association (ITA) together with the IT specialists from the USA; the educational and research center "INTES" created by the innovative company "INTES" with the support of foreign companies Schneider Electric (France) and CISCO (USA); joint educational and scientific laboratory "Integrated Mobile Systems" with the innovative company AXONIM Devices, which is a partner of such world-known companies as Analog Devices, Texas Instruments and ST Microelectronics.

A successful example of international cooperation is presented by the Department of Information and Computer-Aided Systems Design, which has opened its branch at the base of the Computer Systems Institute (CSI) in Chicago (Illinois) and Boston (Massachusetts) with the aim to provide distance training of US residents.

The specialty “Electronic Computer Engineering” is very important nowadays. We can’t imagine the modern world without radio electronic devices. We can find them both at home and at work, in libraries and concert halls, in cars and trains. Watches and washing machines, audio and video devices, safety devices, radio-amateur testers, portable radio stations and long-haul systems are only a few examples of such facilities.

The specialty “Modeling and Computer-Aided Design of Radioelectronic Devices” embraces the design of radio electronic devices and control systems; computer-aided design of radio electronic devices; technology of microelectronic devices. Among the most important subjects in this field are integrated circuits, control systems, solid-state electronics, medical imaging systems, consumer electronics. The complex task of manufacturing silicon chips implies the most advanced technology, including computers, electron-beam lithography, micro manipulators, ion-beam implantation, and ultra clean environments. Much of the research in electronics is directed toward creating even smaller chips, faster switching components, and three-dimensional integrated circuits. Digital watches, hand-held computers, and electronic games are systems based on microprocessors. Other developments include the digitalization of audio signals, where the frequency and amplitude of an audio signal are coded digitally. Digitally recorded music shows the fidelity that is not possible using direct-recording methods. Digital playback devices of this nature have already entered the home market. Digital storage could also form the basis of home video systems and may significantly alter library storage systems, because much more information can be stored on a disk for replay on a television screen than any book can contain.

The specialty “Computer-Controlled Digital Optical Systems”is highly promising and prestigious. It is concerned with developing up-to-date electronic-optical devices and the equipment for their manufacture, high technologies and computer systems for design- and production automation, their economics and management. Electronic-optical products such as optical fiber communication lines, vision systems, night vision devices, laser sight and pointers, tele- and video cameras, electronic and cash registers, television picture tubes, monitors for computers, and the like, are widely used in various spheres of activity.

The specialty “Medical Electronics” is very topical nowadays. Modern medicine is characterized by a wide application of achievements in electronics and microelectronics, personal computers and information technologies, expert systems for processing the biomedical information, automating and enhancing the reliability of diagnosis. Medical electronics has progressed from computerized axial tomography, or the use of CAT or CT scanners, to systems that can discriminate more and more of the organs of the human body. Devices that can view blood vessels and the respiratory systems have been developed as well. Ultrahigh definition television also promises to substitute many photographic processes, because it eliminates the need for silver.

The students of the faculty acquire a thorough knowledge of physics, physical-chemical foundations of microelectronics, radio-and computing equipment, computer-aided design. They also master programming languages and one or two foreign languages.

Upon graduating from the University they can work at any radio electronic enterprise or do research.
