Engineering Physics and Electronics

History of the Department 

The Department of Engineering Physics and Electronics was established on February 3, 2021, according to the decision of the Scientific Council, based on the foundations of the previous Departments of Physics and Electronics. 

The Department of Engineering Physics and Electronics operates under the Faculty of Power Engineering and Automation at Azerbaijan Technical University (AzTU). It offers programs in three specializations: Engineering Physics, Electronics, Telecommunication and Radio Engineering, and Biomedical Engineering, training professionals who are qualified to work both in our country and abroad. 

The department has established a strong scientific school in various fields such as semiconductors and dielectrics, electronic devices, industrial electronics, power electronics, electronic engineering, the physics and technology of materials and components, construction of electronic computing machinery and devices, bioengineering devices and apparatus, service for biomedical and radio-electronic devices, medical and technical diagnostic methods and devices, engineering work in biological and medical practice, etc. Thousands of engineering professionals have been trained here. 

The department is provided with a modern teaching laboratory base managed by the Data Studio program, which meets contemporary standards and covers all areas taught within the department. There are 7 teaching and 4 research laboratories under the department.

Main scientific directions of the Department of Engineering Physics and Electronics:

New semiconductor materials for industry and structures based on them

Nanocomposites resistant to external influences

Green energy

Medical equipment

Solid-state electronics

Biomonitoring of air pollution

In accordance with the scientific directions of the department, research works on "Development and application possibilities of new generation semiconductor materials and thin-film structures oriented towards industry", "Development of new nanocomposite materials resistant to external influences", "Green energy", "Solid-state electronics", and "New generation medical devices" are carried out. Similarly, seminars and discussions take place on above mentioned research works. The department's specialized students are also involved in these research activities, conducted in collaboration with the departments faculty members.
