The faculty was founded in 1971 with the most active participation of Prof.Paton, the President of the Academy of Science of Ukraine. Its organization was dictated by the great demands of the factories in Mariupol. Since the time it was the third welding faculty in the USSR Now there are only two welding faculties in Ukraine: in Mariupol and in Kyiv. Boosting of production outputs in Mariupol steel factories in the 50s along with introducing high-productive equipment and enlarging its maintenance base demanded for professionals trained in design and operation of complex machines and equipment of metallurgical mills. Under these conditions, the metallurgical institute (now PSTU) launched training programmes for mechanical engineers working with equipment of iron and steel factories. In 2017, the engineering and welding faculties are united.
