ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

The Faculty of Mechanical and Civil Engineering in Kraljevo has been traditionally organizing a triennial international scientific conference since 1993. After 11 successful conferences under the name Heavy Machinery (HM), the conference is now renamed to Engineering TODAY (ET). The new name reflects the significant expansion of the faculty’s activities through the introduction of new study programmes and research areas that extend well beyond the traditional scope of mechanical and civil engineering. The conference retains full continuity with the HM series, including its ordinal number (twelfth edition), triennial cycle, and international character.

The main content of the Conference was the presentation of contemporary scientific and research results related to a wide spectrum of engineering disciplines, including heavy machinery design, production technologies, information technologies, civil engineering, and environmental protection. The papers presented at the Conference are being prepared for publication in the Conference Proceedings. Selected papers may also be considered for publication in the journal Engineering TODAY.

The XII International Scientific Conference Engineering TODAY ET 2026 served as a forum for the exchange of experience and the presentation of research results, with the aim of highlighting directions for the further development of industry, manufacturing, and education. The Conference also provided an opportunity to discuss broader topics relevant to national, regional, and European research and development policies. The programme included results from national, regional, and European scientific projects, contributing to the dissemination of international scientific and technical cooperation, the initiation of new research projects, and broader collaboration between industry and academia.

The Conference also offered opportunities to present new products, technologies, and services through exhibitions and multimedia presentations to an international audience.
