Summary of the Profile
General Description:
Objective(s) of a study programme:
Educate highly skilled aviation mechanics specialists, having interdisciplinary and latest knowledge of aeronautics engineering study field and able to design aircraft internal installation and modifications by coordinating technical solutions with the manufacturing institution, applying engineering methods and carrying out interdisciplinary research, to plan and supervise the work of aircraft technical maintenance personnel, employ life-long learning in order to participate in the global aviation engineering market.
Learning outcomes:
Knowledge and implementation:
Will know, understand and be able to apply fundamental knowledge of natural sciences and mathematics as well as principles of aeronautics engineering study field creatively and will be able to use them to solve new engineering problems.
Will know and be able to critically assess the latest developments in engineering.
Research abilities:
Will be able to plan and carry out analytical, modelling and experimental research, critically assess its data and draw conclusions.
Will be able to analyse the applicability of new ways and methods for solving aviation engineering problems.
Engineering analysis:
Will be able to solve non-standard and incompletely defined problems, discern standard and non-standard problems in aeronautics engineering, clearly formulate them, and apply innovative methods for solving specific problems and implement solutions.
Will be able to use their knowledge and understanding to solve practical problems in aeronautics engineering by applying theoretical models and research methods, including mathematical analysis, numerical modelling, and experimental methods.
Engineering design:
Will be able to apply the acquired knowledge and understanding to solve non-standard problems in mechanical engineering, among them problems related with other scientific and engineering fields.
Will be able to implement innovative and original ideas and methods in aviation mechanics engineering, make engineering decisions when confronted with multi-faceted, technically incomplete problems that are not accurately defined.
Engineering activity abilities:
Will be able to integrate knowledge from different study fields and solve multi-faceted engineering problems, to select appropriate engineering equipment and software.
Will have knowledge of engineering activity organisation principles, understand interaction between its links, will be able to assess engineering activity in view of occupational health and safety and environmental aspects, and have knowledge of ethical, environmental, and commercial requirements for engineering activity.
Personal and social abilities:
Will be able to work effectively both individually and in a team, be a leader of a team composed of members of various study fields and levels, to communicate with the engineering community and the general public both on a national and international level.
Will have a holistic understanding of the impact of engineering activity on the society and environment, adhere to the norms of professional ethics and engineering activity, understand the responsibility for it, will have a deep understanding of project management and business aspects, also of the links between technical solutions and economic consequences.
