MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
The professional profile of the Mechanical Engineering study programme graduates is characterised by theoretical but mainly practical knowledge of construction and engineering technologies, production facilities and automation, quality of mechanical production, economics and production control and by abilities and capabilities of the skilful application of the acquired knowledge in practice. The graduates receive theoretical but mainly practical knowledge of the most widespread technologies in mechanical engineering production and in the field of automation of mechanical engineering. The graduates acquire habits and skills in construction, design and technological activities and in application of modern technological tools. The graduates also have basic knowledge in the field of production, testing, technological processing, selection, exploitation and degradation of properties of the main types of technical materials. They are able to operate mainly in industrial businesses: in the field of technical material production, their technological processing to semi-finished goods and products as well as in quality control and assurance, in purchase, sale, service and maintenance. The graduates are qualified to work in operation of industrial mechanical engineering companies, in railway and public transport, in all areas of mechanical engineering and in other organisations of administrative, production, operating or repair character. The graduates have adequate knowledge in the field of electronics, mechatronics, robotics, drives, as well as in the field of computer-aided mechanical engineering manufacturing. They feature sufficient practical experience and skills in laboratory work, they master professional terminology in a foreign language, and they are able to apply the basics of economic methods necessary for operation of the existing systems.
Prospects of graduates
The graduate of the bachelor's study programme Mechanical Engineering Technology will find its application in industrial enterprises in the field of production of technical materials, their technological processing into semi-finished products and products, as well as in the field of their quality control, purchasing, sales, service and maintenance. Graduates can have a wide range of applications in the operation of industrial engineering enterprises, in railway and urban public transport, in all areas of engineering and in other organisations of an administrative, production, operational or repair nature. Graduates have adequate knowledge in the field of electronics, mechatronics, robotics as well as in the field of computer support of mechanical engineering production. They have sufficient practical experience and skills in laboratory work, have adequate knowledge of professional terminology in a foreign language, know the basics of economic methods necessary for the operation of existing systems.
The structure of the Bachelor's degree programme in Mechanical Engineering Technology 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.

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:

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 during their secondary school studies,
e) applicants who have been successful in a regional or national round during their secondary school studies
f) applicants who have been successful in a regional, national or international round of a major knowledge-based professional competition.
