Introduction
Masters in Mechatronics
Do you waver between mechanical or electrical engineering or IT? You don’t have already!
Mechatronics, this is the up-to-date connection of the fine mechanics, electronics and intelligent computer control systems.
Each modern product can be practically called mechatronic system. You can find a job in mechanical or electrical engineering, robotics, biomedicine, and next related branches.
During the studies you learn to design, to test and also to control mechatronic systems, which scan the signals from the environment (temperature, position, velocity, pressure, sound, image etc.), are able to process them and transform into the control signal, which finally controls the for example the movement of the robot or production machine.
You will learn to design them as an advanced product characterized by the use of artificial intelligence, interactivity or autonomous behaviour.

Program Outcome
Graduate's knowledge
The graduates of the study program Mechatronics have knowledge important for the design of mechatronic systems. They know a lot about automatic control systems, applied mechanics, electronics and microprocessor systems, measurements and signal processing.
They have experience with electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic drives and their control systems, next with measurements and sensors and diagnostic signal processing.
Graduate's skills
The graduates are able to analyse the dynamic properties of the complex structure systems and use the methods of mathematical-physical modelling and simulation of dynamic systems. They know, how to use the CAD software for design of mechatronic systems, control algorithms and software for data acquisition, monitoring and visualisation of technological processes. They are ready to design the measurement of important variables of the mechatronic system and to design the identification experiment of the dynamic properties of the controlled systems. Based on the dynamic analysis they are able to design the control system using PLC, industrial PC or embedded control systems.
