He/she has the ability to solve static, kinematic and dynamic analysis of designed systems and their parts and is able to design, dimension parts and structural units. Is able to analyze and design electrical subsystems and create simple control systems.

Learning Objectives

The graduate of the Bachelor's degree in Industrial Mechatronics will acquire knowledge and skills in the natural sciences and in general engineering disciplines, and in particular in the technologies and methodologies of the program aimed at the construction and operation of machines, devices, equipment and systems falling into the class of mechatronic systems and their components. At the same time, the student will acquire the skills and abilities in the use of computer science in the tasks of the programme and skills in laboratory work. At the same time, the student will acquire knowledge of foreign languages and adequate knowledge of economics, law and other areas. By studying the programme, the graduate will acquire the ability to specialise and the prerequisites for permanent education.
The study programme Industrial Mechatronics, which is understood as an interdisciplinary study programme, is aimed at the preparation of specialists in mechanical and electrical engineering with knowledge of the basics of informatics and automation for operation, production, testing and, in part, the design of mechatronic systems, with a focus on production technology and other related areas. These are machines, machinery and systems characterised by high functionality, motion and handling capability, which are controlled and managed by modern automation and computer technology, digital, mostly distributed control systems.
The acquired knowledge is mainly in areas such as materials engineering, fundamentals of design, constructive and computational geometry, design of machines and machine components, engineering technology, statics, kinematics, dynamics, elasticity and strength, hydromechanics, thermomechanics, structure and properties of materials, programming techniques, prototypes of mechatronic systems, fundamentals of technical design, technical documentation, computer science, methodology of technical creativity, fundamentals of mechatronics, manufacturing technology, information security of mechatronic systems, cybernetics and informatics, mechatronic systems, automated control systems, industrial automation, mechanical metrology, electrical engineering, industrial mechatronics, modelling of dynamic systems, manufacturing systems, mechatronics of systems, automation and automation technology, durability of elements of mechanical systems.

Learning Outcomes

The graduate of the study programme Industrial Mechatronics (1st degree) is able to analyse the problems and opportunities that open up in different areas of industry, to design parts of mechatronic systems to meet the requirements placed on them, and also to create such systems and implement them. They are able to apply the procedures for creating a concept of an industrial mechatronic system - to solve the design concept of a future mechatronic product.
The graduate is able to work with managers, with users of mechatronic systems and specialists of other professions. He/she also has the skills to complete the proposed solution to the final stage and to cooperate in the solution team with other collaborators and is able to present the proposed solution in an appropriate form to attract the attention of a potential customer. He also has the ability to search and analyze literature sources in English, communicate and present his solutions in English.
He has the skills to understand and design simple electrical circuits - design and create a prototype of an electrical system or part of it, and then to create technical documentation - active and independent work in the creation of drawings and procedures. Able to create algorithmic tasks in a programming environment - active and independent work in the creation of simple flowcharts and source codes in a programming language. He/she is then able to design simple control systems - design and implementation of a control algorithm for a simple system.
He/she has the skills to create static, kinematic and dynamic analysis of solved systems and their parts - independently create computational analysis of structural nodes in terms of statics, kinematics and dynamics. Can design, dimension and assess the mechanical resistance of parts - apply control calculations of components and structural units and process their designs using CAD systems. Is ready to correctly design the technological process and material of the designed mechanical part - design of the technology of production of the part in terms of technological efficiency and economy of production.
