The department provides training for bachelors, masters and graduate students in the specialty 141 - "Power Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Electromechanics" in the programs of three levels of higher education:
- the first (bachelor's degree): "Power Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Electromechanics"; "Electromechanical automation systems"; "Electromechanics";
- the second (master's): "Electromechanical automation systems and electric drive";
- the third (educational and scientific): "Electric power, electrical engineering and electromechanics".
The department has a highly qualified team. The staff of the department in the scientific plan works in the direction of diagnostics of power electric equipment and regulating paths of systems of automatic and automated control of electric drives. Within the framework of scientific interests, students can obtain a master's degree, continue their postgraduate studies and realize themselves as scientists. The department has many laboratories where students have the opportunity to pursue their research interests.
The department was founded on April 8, 1994 under the name of the department "Electric machines and drive" to provide the educational process of the specialty 7.092208 "Electric drive and automation of industrial plants and technological complexes". The department was headed by the Rector of the University, Honored Worker of Science and Technology of Ukraine, Academician of APNU, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Boris Mokin.
At the beginning of 1998, in connection with the reorganization of the bachelor's degree program "Electromechanics" and the change of the name of the specialty to 7.092203 "Electromechanical automation systems and electric drive", the department was renamed "Electromechanical Systems", and since October 1998 - "Electromechanical Automation Systems".
In April 2004, the department was divided into two departments: "Electromechanical Automation Systems", headed by the First Vice-Rector for Research, International Relations and Economic Policy of VNTU, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Grabko Vladimir Vitalyevich, and "Mathematical Modeling of Complex Systems". Rector of the University, Honored Worker of Science and Technology of Ukraine, Academician of APNU, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Mokin Boris Ivanovich.
In December 2006, in connection with the opening of a new specialty "Electrical systems and complexes of vehicles", the department became known as "Electromechanical automation systems in industry and transport."
On March 1, 2010 the department was divided into two departments: "Electromechanical automation systems in industry and transport", headed by the first vice-rector for research, international relations and economic policy of VNTU, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Grabko Vladimir Vitalyevich, and "Renewable Energy and transport electrical systems and complexes ”, which was headed by Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor Mokin Alexander Borisovich.
From February 2015 to January 15, 2022, the department was headed by Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Vasily Mikhailovich Kutin.
On January 16, 2022, the departments of "Electromechanical automation systems in industry and transport" and "Theoretical Electrical Engineering and Electrical Measurements" were merged. The joint department was renamed "Computerized electromechanical systems and complexes. The duties of the head of the department were assigned to the candidate of technical sciences, associate professor Nikolai Moshnoriz.
Since the establishment of the department, the efforts of teachers have focused mainly on the formation of the educational process, the creation of new laboratories and the modernization of existing laboratories. The department was one of the first at the faculty to introduce into the educational process modern computer equipment as a component of laboratory facilities.
Graduates of the department are in high demand in the labor market of Vinnytsia region, Ukraine and abroad. They work at industrial enterprises, electric power enterprises, power plants, design organizations, researchers.
