36 Automation Preparatory Programs

The Automation: Implementation in Business online certificate course will give you knowledge of the organisational, ethical, and technical challenges involved in automation technology deployment, and how to effectively prepare your business for implementation.

This course is for engineers and technicians who need to have a practical knowledge of selection, installation, and commissioning of industrial instrumentation and control valves. In many respects, a clear understanding and application of these principles is the most important factor in an efficient process control system.

Are you interested in the latest technologies and software – and in working within a challenging field that is constantly developing? Earn a master's degree with a unique combination of specialisations: AI and automation. We focus on applied learning, so you’ll get a lot of hands-on work in an industry-like environment in addition to your academic learning.

In today’s technology-based industry and consumer products, there are few products that would not fall under the Mechatronics category. Mechatronics machines and products typically perform mechanical task under the directions of a digital controller using software instructions. Examples of such devices are robots, automation devices, cars, aircraft, communication devices, chemical and food processing devices, appliances, and more.

The dependence on human skills in performing a task is fast diminishing with automation taking centre stage in all processes of life. Industrial activity has embraced automation to such an extent that only supervisory skills are required. But the design, building and testing of such systems still rest with us. Hence this treatise.

This advanced diploma is delivered with a strong practical focus. Upon completion of this programme, students emerge from the course able to demonstrate specialised and integrated technical and theoretical knowledge, with considerable depth, in subject matter related to industrial automation engineering.

Industry is seeing a growing demand for a workforce that combines some of the traditional skill sets of building technicians with advanced skills in controls programming, networking, and systems integration. “Control Technicians” or “Building Automation Technicians” present an emerging and rapidly expanding market of high-wage employment for community college graduates. Their skill sets will also be needed for increasing green workforce demands to implement energy management, efficiency and sustainability measures in buildings.

The Automotive Technology program distinguishes itself by seamlessly blending theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience over six comprehensive quarters of instruction. In a state-of-the-art workshop, students hone their diagnostic and repair skills on late-model vehicles. The curriculum spans an array of subjects, encompassing brake and suspension systems, electrical/electronic systems, automatic and manual transmissions, heating and air conditioning, engines, engine performance, light-duty diesel, engine machining, and cutting-edge hybrid-electric/electric vehicles.

Robotik und Automation sind Schlüsselkomponenten der Industrie 4.0, die Sie aktiv mitgestalten und optimieren wollen. Sie sind im Bereich des Wirtschaftsingenieurwesens oder der Elektro- und Informationstechnik tätig, möchten aber ihre Kenntnisse der Produktionsplanung und Steuerungstechnik ausbauen und fokussieren?

In this program, you’ll learn to maintain, test, repair, and/or replace complex electrical systems and controls found in modern industrial plants and large commercial buildings. The program includes hands-on training in motors, generators, robotics, power distribution, and other electrical systems.

The Automation and Production Technology program offers training and industry-recognized credentials for employment in the manufacturing industry. Students learn the latest in advanced manufacturing equipment and technology through hands-on practical experience.

This 18-month live online programme will provide you with core electrical and instrumentation engineering skills to enhance your career.

Advanced Automation and Robotics is designed for students interested in great careers in a global marketplace with world-class companies.

Automation Engineering Technologists provide technical support to engineers and professionals working with automated systems. These technicians develop, calibrate, modify, and maintain these systems.

This course blends multiple disciplines, including Electronics, Robotic Controls, Automated Systems, and PLCs, to give students a well-rounded education in Robotic Technology and Automation.
