Kyiv Military Aviation Engineering Academy () in Kyiv, Ukraine was one of the leading military university-level institutions and research centers of the Soviet Union for the preparation of highly qualified engineers of various specialties for the Soviet Air Forces and Soviet Air Defence Forces. After the breakdown of the Soviet Union, it became the main (and only) military school in Ukraine, preparing engineering and logistics officers for the Ukrainian Air Force.
All educational programs had five-year duration and graduates were granted a qualification and a degree of military engineer (corresponding to the western level from Bachelor to Master of Engineering). The same educational programs were used at the Zhukovsky Air Force Engineering Academy.
History
It was founded on September 1, 1951 as the Kyiv Higher Engineering Radio-Technical College of the Soviet Air Force.
The academy had a very high reputation; competition for admission was 15 applicants per place. It had academic councils which were awarding Doktor nauk and Candidate of Sciences (Ph.D.) degrees.
The academy had two locations. The main academic campus was located at 30 Vozdukhoflotskii Avenue in a massive three-story building built in the 1910s, and a second building on Hryhoriia Andriuschenka Street. In addition, the academy had a training airfield near the Kyiv International Airport (Zhuliany). About a dozen planes and helicopters of various types were available there for engineering practice. The flights were not performed. Later, the training airfield was used to establish the Ukraine State Aviation Museum.
On July 3, 2000, the military institution has ceased to exist as such, has been reorganized, the staff and students were relocated to the at Kharkiv. The main academic building now houses the Ivan Chernyakhovsky National Defense University of Ukraine.
