The teaching organizational units at the Faculty are departments. A department consists of professors and associates who participate in delivering courses within the department. The tasks of a department include: organizing teaching, scientific, and highly specialized work for all courses offered within the department; preparing drafts of teaching plans and programs for courses offered within the department; improving all forms of teaching work at the Faculty; overseeing textbooks, manuals, and other teaching aids; taking care of teachers, associates, and researchers, and their teaching and scientific development; and monitoring the success of students. Departments are organized in a way that consolidates related courses.
