Automation

The field of study Automation at the first level of the higher education professional study of Electrical Engineering is a practically oriented program that prepares students to work with modern automation and robotics systems. The program is designed to enable the acquisition of fundamental and useful knowledge in the field of control, process management and automation, and to prepare them for immediate work in industry.

Main features of the study

• Practical orientation:

The program is strongly oriented towards practical education. Students become familiar with tools and methods for planning, implementing and maintaining automated systems. There is a strong emphasis on laboratory exercises and practical projects where students face real industry challenges.
Basic and advanced knowledge: Students acquire basic knowledge in the field of electrical and control circuits, sensors, actuators, logic control, robotics, computer-aided control, programmable logic controllers, process control and industrial automation.

• Modern technologies:

The program covers the use of modern technologies such as robotics, industrial IoT, artificial intelligence (AI) in automation, computer vision, machine learning systems and advanced process control, which enables students to prepare for work with advanced technologies.

• Industry contact:

The program includes mandatory practical training where students gain direct experience in business and industrial settings. This enables direct contact with industrial processes and automation and the development of skills that are directly applicable in the labor market.

• Interdisciplinary skills:

In addition to the basics of electrical engineering, electronics and mechanics, the program also includes knowledge of informatics and computer science, which is key to the development and implementation of complex automated systems.

Career opportunities

Graduates of the higher education professional program in the field of Automation are highly sought after in various industries, where experts are needed for process automation, programming and maintenance of robots, development and integration of intelligent control systems, and control and optimization of production processes. There are employment opportunities in areas such as the automotive industry, production automation, energy, the food industry, pharmacy, and many other branches of industry and service activities.

Graduates also have the option of continuing their studies at the second level, where they can deepen their knowledge and specialize in specific areas of automation and robotics. The study of Automation at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering thus offers a practically oriented education that is coordinated with the requirements of the modern labor market, and enables graduates to quickly integrate into industrial environments and develop a successful career.
