The main structural units of the University are departments; the results of their work influence the quality of knowledge, skills and competence of graduates and the image of the University. The article reveals the reasons of unproductive interaction of the departments with divisions, providing educational process; it also discusses suggestions that will improve the performance of the main indicators of assessment of the efficiency of activities of the University. It is shown, that a systematic approach is the basis in the organization of work of structural divisions of the University, but it is difficult to implement, if managers and supervisors do not have authority. To improve the quality of graduates and their demand in the labor market, it requires exempting the Department from administrative work. These functions can be redirected to the management, departments and services with modern electronic information processing system. To achieve high results in training in-demand graduates is possible when the offices and the departments will work as a team with the lecturers, in cooperation and understanding

The article elucidates reasons for the falling prestige of higher technical professional education in Russia and based on their analysis we propose measures aimed at raising the status of technical specialists. These activities include: development of a strategic plan of development of higher professional education, a system of vocational guidance of graduates of secondary educational institutions; improvement of quality of preparation of scientific-pedagogical staff and development of effective system of training of teachers; the quality of the educational process and development of effective system of training of graduates; development of objective criteria for assessing the effectiveness of universities; development of a system of Patriotic education of students of secondary and higher educational institutions; increase of salaries of specialists, influencing the country's economic development, the status and prestige of the profession of high school teacher. It is necessary to develop a strategic plan for the development of higher professional education urgently since the first part of young professionals will be ready only after 4 years. Nevertheless, retraining and advanced training of specialists of technical and technological disciplines needed for the development of modern techniques and technologies, including foreign ones, we can start today. The implementation of the considered measures will allow to raise prestige of higher technical professional education and quality training of students

The article reveals the shortcomings of adopted criteria for performance evaluation of universities and offers science-based indicators to assess the ability of the university to organize the quality of training of graduates

The article reveals the content of pedagogical work activities for teaching staff in the main activities of the Department (academic, educational, methodical, scientific and organizational-methodical work). We have offered a rational standard time for their quality execution, allowing improving the quality of training of university graduates. It is proposed to consider additional classes and consultations in the burden time of teachers, as well as the norms of time for preparation for publishing educational and scientific literature, development of training, methodological, logistical and organizational-methodical work. It is shown, that the participation of teachers in researches and development with the aim of earning money for the University reduces the level of the educational process. To improve the quality of training of students, we have offered a number of key measures that needed to be organized by the Ministry of education and science of the Russian Federation, and also, by employees of the administrative apparatus of universities

The article considers one of the most important issues of the work of the head of department - organization of personal work and relations with employees of the department from which generally depend the results of operations of the department

The article discusses the features of design and operation in the different modes of functioning of autonomous hybrid power plants based on renewable and traditional energy sources. We have given a structural scheme of such a plant. It is shown that the algorithm of the system in the autumn-winter period should be adjusted according to the monthly monitoring; and standby generator of independent source can be run at a deeper discharge of batteries. It is known that the most expensive and the weakest link in the solar PV plants is rechargeable battery. In addition, the larger the number they have in the system, the more complicated the fulfillment of all conditions of proper operation is. We have proposed to extend the lifetime of batteries through the use of passive balancing, which allows to increase the reliability of operation and reduce the cost. It is shown that a real possibility of improving the technical and economic performance of autonomous hybrid power plants is their execution on the basis of solar photovoltaic power plants. We have also discussed the features of construction and operation of hybrid power plants, which will increase the efficiency of preliminary works on development of high-performance structural circuit design of the stations

The high speed of solar energy development in the modern world allows us to assert that in the near future it will become one of the main sources of electricity. The authors describe a classification of solar power plants, which can be of two types – thermodynamic and photovoltaic, as well as the features of design and operation of these plants. There is a structural and schematic solution of autonomous solar power stations and ones operating in parallel with the external power grid. The features of their design and operation, including the main advantages and disadvantages were shown. It is shown that to improve the reliability, including uninterrupted power supply, a promising direction is the development of combined systems which in addition to the solar power plant may use wind power, gas or diesel power, etc. In addition, such stations may provide power from the external power supply. We have given one of the variants of structural designs of combined systems of energy and disclosed recommendations for the design of energy-efficient combined systems of power supply, made using renewable and conventional sources of electricity. The final version of the combined system of electricity supply and the degree of participation of traditional and renewable energy sources in electricity production is determined on the basis of the analysis of the energy balance and electromagnetic compatibility of the main functional elements of the system

In the article, the main shortcomings of organizational and methodical work of the higher school reveal, which interfere with effective work of the chair – the main division of the higher education institution which is carrying out training of specialists for various branches. The complex of the actions directed on quality improvement of preparation of students in the engineering directions is offered

In the article, we introduce the criteria for the estima-tion of energy and economic efficiency of renewable energy sources as well as of its application and using in the Krasnodar region. Also hereby the main goals are examined and the plan of development of renew-able energy in the region is proposed

In this article we have examined the following is-sues: structure flowcharts’ settlements and opera-tional peculiarities of converters and stabilizers of electrical parameters of wind power plants, solar power plants and mini-hydropower plants. All tech-nical decisions are covered by patents of the Russian Federation
