Text L “Farm Electrification faculty”

I study at the Tyumen State Agricultural Academy. I am a second-year student of Farm Electrification faculty, the Mechanical- Technology Institute. Our Institute was founded in 2000.

Nowadays there are seven faculties at the Mechanical- Technology Institute. It has a highly qualified teaching staff. Moreover, there are 28 modern laboratories: laboratories of agricultural machines, tractors and automobiles, well-equipped baking shop and workshops at the Mechanical- Technology Institute.

Farm Electrification faculty was established in 2001. Our faculty trains electrical engineers. I am a full-time student.

I think my future speciality is very important and necessary one. It requires deep knowledge in all branches of agriculture. We study many subjects, which are interesting and necessary for our future speciality. They are Mathematics, English, descriptive geometry, strength of materials, automatization and many others. All these subjects help us to become qualified specialists.

An electrical engineer should provide service, installation, maintenance and repair of electrical equipment, power plants and controlling gauges.

As a matter of fact, we can not imagine our life without electricity. Thus, this speciality (an electrical engineer) is considered to be very useful and necessary.

Nowadays electricity is widely used in agriculture. Modern applications of electricity in farming include conditioning and storage of grain and grass; preparation and rationing of animal feed; and many others. Electricity plays an equally important part in the dairy farm for feed rationing, milking, and milk cooling; all these applications are automatically controlled.

The engineer and farmer have combined to develop electrically powered equipment for crop conservation and storage to help overcome weather hazards at harvesttime and to reduce labour requirements to a minimum.

While studying the students have their practical work on the experimental training farm and at different plants of our region. An electrical engineer has a chance to use his deep knowledge working at different plants and enterprises of our region. Different enterprises are always eager to get our qualified specialists.

On graduating from the Academy, I’ll receive a diploma of an electrical engineer.

I think I like my future speciality and find it to be very useful and important.
