During training, educational, technological, industrial, and pre-diploma practice, the student acquires practical skills for various activity levels in road transport, participates in actual manufacturing, and gets used to entrepreneurial activity.

The university library is at the service of students. The department's facilities are located in an area of ​​over 1000m2 and include lecture halls, specialized laboratories and offices on the basics of design, electronic and electrical equipment of cars, car engines, heat engineering, technical operation of vehicles, car theory, and traffic safety. The department also has a computer class (with an Internet connection) where students can improve their knowledge, conduct calculations and complete courses, diploma projects, and master's theses. The department has an educational and scientific centre for advanced training of students in motor transport and a student design and technology bureau.

The training of students in the specialities "Automobile Transport" and "Transport Technologies" is carried out by a team of highly qualified academicians. The Department of Automobiles and Transport Technologies includes 23 lecturers, 2 Doctors of Technical Sciences, 18 Candidates of Technical Sciences, 1 Candidate of Economic Sciences, and 1 Doctor of Philosophy (PhD); there are 2 full professors, 21 associate professors and 4 technical officers.

The Department has established close cooperation with the National Transport University (Kyiv), Lviv Polytechnic National University, the Kharkiv National Automobile and Highway University, Vinnytsia National Technical University, Zhytomyr State Technological University and other higher educational institutions of Ukraine.

Students are engaged in scientific and research activities; they study in the master's programmes and later in postgraduate studies.
Prizes placed in all-Ukrainian competitions and Olympiads are evidence of the high level of student training. Thus, in the 2014/2015 academic year, according to the results of the 2nd round of the All-Ukrainian Student Olympiad, the 3rd place was won by a student Maksymuk O.; according to the results of the 2nd round of the All-Ukrainian Competition of Student Scientific Papers, the winners were: students Kuryn M. (2nd place), Dziuma V. (2nd place), Hasukha Yu. (3rd place).
In the 2016/17 academic year, according to the results of the 2nd round of the All-Ukrainian Competition of Student Scientific Papers, the section "Operation and repair of the vehicle means" Panius O. took 2nd place, Liubinetska Yu. got 2nd place and Khomiak I. won 3rd place. According to the results of the second stage of the All-Ukrainian Student Olympiad in the general professional discipline "Technical operation of vehicles", master's student Panius O. took 3rd place.

The department manages 4 active student research circles:
“Research on controllability, manoeuvrability and stability of road trains” (head – PhD, Assoc. Prof. Stelmashchuk V.V.);
“Highway logistics and economics and management in road transport” (head – PhD, Assoc. Prof. Murovany I.S.);
“Research on operational indicators of engines when operating on alternative fuels” (head – PhD., Assoc. Prof. Zakharchuk V.I.);
“Improving accident indicators of vehicles with hybrid power plants” (head – PhD., Assoc. Prof. Sitovsky O.P.).

Over the years of its activity, the department has trained about 2,500 mechanical engineers and 100 masters. Graduates work at motor transport enterprises of Volyn and neighbouring regions, in the automotive industry, in branded and dealer centres of automobile companies and factories, research and higher educational institutions, customs service, commercial structures, logistics centres, brokerage companies, transport departments and departments of state administrations, associations of motor carriers, in state authorities and hold positions from primary to managerial.

The department's lecturers implement many scientific tasks in close cooperation with partners from foreign universities, including Lublin and Rzeszow Polytechnics (Poland), Georgian Technical University (Georgia), Vytautas Magnus University Agriculture Academy (Lithuania), Technical University Gheorghe Asachi Iasi (Romania), VVUÚ, (Czech Republic).

The department actively participated in the project “TRACECA Transport Dialogue and Networks Interoperability II”, which aimed to develop the international transport corridor Europe - Caucasus - Asia

1) development of a regional logistics system;

2) use of alternative fuels in tractor diesel engines;

3) improvement of accident indicators of vehicles with hybrid power plants;

4) testing of cars and road vehicles;

5) research and improvement of the operation of road vehicle components and assemblies and their driving modes;

6) use of energy recovery during vehicle braking.

As a separate structural unit, the Department of Automobile and Transport Technology began its activity in 1986, when the Department of Technical Mechanics was reorganised (order No. 98 dated 31.08.1986). At that time, the acting head of the department was appointed PhD, Assoc. Prof. M. P. Bironta, and from September 1986 to 1997, the department was headed by PhD, Assoc. Prof. V. R. Karpenko. From 1997 to 2012, PhD, Prof. O. V. Pryimak was the head of the department, and from 2012 to 2021 - PhD, Assoc. Prof. I. S. Murovanyi. Today, PhD, Assoc. Prof. V. P. Onyshchuk is the head of the department.
