Mechanical Engineer

Mechanical Engineer


Mechanical engineering is an area that develops extremely rapidly keeping pace with the technologies. Modern production needs professionals –engineers with an innovative approach to new challenges.

Lecturers encourage students to think creatively, pay attention to all phases – from the idea to the final product – and carefully prepare technical documentation.

A mechanical engineer performs an extremely diverse and wide range of work: he/she manages powerful computer and mechanical systems, develops hardware and software computer equipment, designs, plans expert systems and manages production processes.


Acquired knowledge

Mechanical engineering graduates know how to:

Follow trends in technologies and materials

Plan and implement technological processes and procedures

Plan maintenance and repair in the field of electrical power engineering

Elaborate the design of a project task or a project

Perform measurements in electrical power engineering and set relay protection

Monitor the operating status of electrical power engineering plants

Manage electrical power engineering installations from the management centre and carry out switching manipulations

Design less complex electrical power installations and facilities

Supervise the construction of less complex installations and facilities

Lead a department, service or shift in the field of electrical power engineering

 

 


Programme

The programme is designed according to the combined study model, which is a perfect combination of classical and e-study, intertwining the contact with the lecturer, exchange of opinions with study colleagues, kindness, assistance of school counselling staff and distance learning.

The lectures are enriched with modern methods and focused on solving current issues (including issues from your work environment). To additionally upgrade the knowledge and transfer theory into practice, we organise study excursions. We encourage the integration of theory into practical knowledge and innovation leading to progress.

The study is based on combining knowledge with practical work. We also recognise relevant work experience as a successfully completed internship. The mechanical engineering programme is completed with the defence of the diploma thesis.
