The aim of the programme is to train mechatronics engineers who develop, modernise and introduce mechatronics systems in production, perform their monitoring, diagnostics, maintenance and repair, organise and plan the production process, manage projects and the subordinated staff, provide consultations on innovations in the mechatronics industry and their implementation in production.
The students of the programme are encouraged to conduct scientific research, create innovative products, and establish their own companies.
Results of the study programme
Upon completion of the programme, the students have gained knowledge in the basic engineering courses and professional specialisation courses typical of mechatronics in accordance with the standard requirements of the profession of a Mechatronics Engineer.
Students acquire the skills required for the work of a mechatronics engineer: to develop, modernise and introduce mechatronics systems in production, perform their supervision, diagnostics, maintenance and repairs, as well as to organise and plan the production process.
Students are able to:
- design, develop and upgrade equipment and mechatronic systems;
- put into operation, set up and maintain equipment and mechatronic systems;
- perform diagnostics, maintenance and repairs of mechatronic systems, to ensure compliance of equipment operation with the requirements of the technological process, to plan the required amounts of necessary materials;
- ensure compliance with the requirements of occupational, fire, and electrical safety, environmental and civil protection.
Opportunities for graduates
Graduates will affect positive change in the community by engaging in careers in mechatronics, controls, robotics, automation, and other engineering fields in a manner that promotes excellence and integrity by solving complex engineering problems necessitating knowledge across disciplines.
The graduates of the programme can continue their education in master’s programmes.
