Automation and Robotics

The Automation and Robotics degree will provide you a strong basic competence in automation and electrical engineering and good skills for continuous professional development.

After completing the Automation and Robotics programme, you will be able to design automation, robotics, measurements, drives, controls, and user interfaces for production lines and enterprise products. You will be familiar with the different levels of automation implementation in an industrial plant and the key sub-processes of industry. You will also be able to plan and implement control systems and assess different alternatives for steering and adjustment solutions. You will also gain expertise in programmable logic, fieldbuses, factory networks, distributed digital automation systems, functional safety, PC-based systems, and user interfaces.

After graduation, you will be able to use robotics and machine vision to create solutions for automating and improving production efficiency. You will also master the key design tools that you can use to design applications for control objects. You are familiar with the principles and practices of field equipment, automation, and instrument electrical design standards. You will also learn the basics of functional safety, which will help you assess the risks of planned solutions. You will also learn how to use and program laboratory equipment that is similar to industrial equipment.
