COMPUTER DESIGN AND SIMULATION

The graduates in the study programme Computer Design and Simulation obtain in the first part of their professional education knowledge of theoretical subjects such as Mathematics, Physics, Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics and Strength and Strain which along with the Rigid Body Mechanics and design and technology-related subjects constitute theoretical and practical basis for the study of the particular study program. Building on this basis the graduates in the second part of professional education acquire knowledge of applied sciences focused mainly on modelling, calculations, construction, operation and maintenance of technical facilities. The students can on the basis of optional subjects aim at all areas of technical sciences. In addition, the graduates are able to handle routine work with modern CAD systems for construction and modelling support, as well as systems for calculating, analyse, and simulation of parts of technical systems and mechanisms in dynamic and FEM analyses. The students can demonstrate their expertise when solving semester and final projects. The study programme ends with the final state examination and thesis defence. During their study, the students receive theoretical and methodological basis and professional and practical experience and skills that are necessary for solving a wide range of issues related to the design, engineering, construction and operation of various machinery and equipment. The graduates are employable in the areas of proposing, design, construction, operation and maintenance of technical systems.

Prospects of graduates

The graduates of the School of Computer Aided Design and Simulation will find employment in the operation of industrial engineering and metallurgical enterprises, in the automotive industry, in the bearing industry, in all areas of engineering technologies, in organizations of production, operational or design and computational character - e.g. in companies of technical character, in a research institute, in an academy of sciences, in a university, etc.). The structure of the bachelor's degree programme Computer Aided Design and Simulation creates conditions for deeper profiling of graduates of the bachelor's degree and at the same time prepares graduates for continuing their studies at the second, engineering degree level.

Conditions of admission

The basic condition for admission to the Bachelor's degree (first degree study programme) is the acquisition of a complete secondary education or a complete secondary vocational education (Act on Higher Education No.131/2002 Coll., as amended). In the case of a foreign applicant or a student who has completed secondary education abroad, this is an education comparable to that completed by the matriculation examination in the Slovak Republic. An applicant who has obtained secondary education abroad shall submit a decision on the recognition of the document on the completion of secondary education by the relevant institution in the Slovak Republic with the application for university studies, or at the latest at the time of enrolment in the studies.

Other admission conditions

Other conditions of admission of applicants to the study programmes of the Bachelor's Degree of the Faculty of Science of UNIZA are set according to § 57 of the Act. The admission procedure shall be conducted in the form of a selection procedure in order to ensure that applicants with the necessary abilities and prerequisites enter the study.

Additional information

All information regarding the admission procedure is published on the faculty's website:

https://www.fstroj.uniza.sk/index.php?option=com_sppagebuilder&view=page&id=219

Conditions for international students

For foreign applicants, the admission conditions apply as for applicants from the Slovak Republic. Foreign students studying in a language other than the national language pay tuition fees according to the conditions set out in Section 92(8) of the Higher Education Act.

Applicants from the Czech Republic may use the form valid in the Czech Republic to apply for studies. Applicants who do not have an active knowledge of Slovak or Czech are required to successfully complete language training (with the possibility of completing it at UNIZA).

For foreign applicants admitted on the basis of interstate agreements, bilateral agreements or for scholarship holders of the Government of the Slovak Republic, the conditions specified in the relevant documents apply.

Conditions of admission without the entrance exam

Without an entrance exam the following are admitted:

a) applicants from gymnasium and secondary industrial school of mechanical engineering, civil engineering or electrical engineering who have achieved an overall average of grades in all subjects in the last three years of study at the secondary school up to 2.8, including 2.8,

b) applicants from secondary vocational schools, combined schools and academies who have achieved an overall average of grades in all subjects in the last three pre-secondary school years up to and including 2.6 on their end-of-year report cards,

c) applicants who have graduated in mathematics with a grade no worse than 3,

d) applicants who have taken the NPS (SCIO) general academic aptitude or mathematics tests in the current school year and have achieved a percentile score of at least 60,

d) applicants who have taken the NPS (SCIO) general academic aptitude or mathematics tests in the current school year and have achieved a percentile score of at least 60,e) applicants who have been successful in a mathematics, physics, or computer science Olympiad in a regional or national round while in high school,

e) applicants who have been successful in a regional or national round of a mathematics, physics, or computer science Olympiad while in high school

f) applicants who have been successful in a regional, national or international round of a major knowledge-based professional competition.

To be admitted without an entrance examination, it is sufficient to fulfil one of the conditions listed above in points a) to f).
