Summary of the Profile
General Description: Objective(s) of a study programme: To provide the skills to apply theoretical and practical knowledge of production engineering to the effective operation of manufacturing enterprises, to develop the skills to critically analyse and forecast the ever-changing problems of the engineering industry using analytical and experimental methods. Learning outcomes:
Knowledge and its Application: A1 Is able to creatively apply knowledge of the natural and fundamental sciences to make reasoned decisions to solve atypical engineering problems; A2 Is able to critically evaluate national and international achievements in production engineering and technologies while defining future development trends and the significance of interactions between various disciplines.
Special (engineering analysis and design) Skills: B1 Is able to solve interdisciplinary atypical problems by combining knowledge of engineering, economics and management; B2 Is able to creatively apply innovation, developing new ideas and methods for the design of products and their production processes; B3 Is able to conduct analytical calculations, modelling and experimental research by critically evaluating and comparing their results with practical experience and results from publications to make specific decisions; B4 Is able to critically evaluate new production technologies, methods or emerging theories.
Research Skills and Practical Activities: C1 Is able to relate interdisciplinary knowledge while analysing multi-faceted production engineering problems; C2 Is able to demonstrate the differences and limitations of applied research methods and methodologies in the selection of software and technological devices to solve engineering problems; C3 Is able to assess the ethical, social, human, safety, economic and sustainable aspects of production; C4 Is able to assess the interaction between various production chains and the environmental impact of technical and non-technical engineering solutions.
Personal (decision-making, lifelong learning, cooperation and teamwork) Skills: D1 Is able to work independently and in a team, reasonably presenting ideas and solutions, as well as being a leader of a team consisting of representatives from various fields and levels of expertise; D2 Is able of debate with professionals and the public at national and international levels; D3 Is able comprehensively assess the link between technological solutions and their impact on society complying with the standards of professional ethics and taking professional responsibility; D4 Is able to discuss the impact of engineering decisions on the economic consequences of business.
Additional Knowledge and Skills: E1 Is able to select the information and data required for production engineering from technical literature, scientific publications, databases and other information sources; E2 Is able to creatively apply innovation, developing new ideas and methods for the design of products and their production processes; E3 Is able to make engineering decisions while facing loosely defined problems. Activities of teaching and learning: The studies include classroom work (lectures, practical work, laboratory work, consultation seminars, outgoing visits to enterprises, etc.) and individual work for mastering theoretical material, preparation for classroom work, intermediate and final assessments and performing other activities. The studies of each study module are completed by the assessment of the student’s knowledge and skills – an examination or another final assessment; the study programme is completed by the final degree project and its defence. The study methods of active learning, such as design (programming), design thinking, challenge-based learning, creative workshops, group work, experiential learning, discussion, problem-based learning, reflective learning, idea (mind) mapping, etc. are applied to encourage the active participation and creativity of students in the study process. The achievements are assessed using the traditional assessment methods, such as laboratory examination,
assignments, laboratory or project report, as well as other methods: work or competency file (portfolio), problem-solving task, engineering project, reflection on action, self-assessment, etc. Methods of assessment of learning achievements: The applied cumulative assessment system of the learning outcomes ensures constant and involving work of students during the entire semester of studies; the final evaluation of the study module consists of the sum of the grades of intermediate assessments and the final assessment multiplied by the weighting coefficients (percentages of components). The number of intermediate assessments and their expression in percentage are chosen by the study module’s coordinating lecturer. Besides the usual forms of assessment (for example, examination, oral presentation, project report, laboratory examination), an additional form of assessment “Assessment of student activity (level)” may be applied (up to 10% of the final grade) for the assessment of the student’s preparation for case analysis, an active discussion, participation in debates, etc. Framework: Study subjects (modules), practical training: Automation of Production Processes, Engineering Economics, Engineering Projects Management, Manufacturing Strategy, Master’s Degree Final Project, Methods of Research and Quality Control, Modelling of Manufacturing Processes, Numerical Methods in Mechanical Engineering, Research Project 1. Specialisations: - Optional courses: Electives: Advanced Metallic Materials, Integrated CAD/CAE/CAM Systems, Innovative Production Technologies, Industrial Maintenance, Computer-Aided Design Systems, Computer Integrated Manufacturing. Distinctive features of a study programme: A graduate has knowledge of theoretical mechanics, mechatronic systems, design and operation of manufacturing technologies, engineering economics, understands the multidisciplinary context of engineering activities, is able to critically evaluate, analyse, research, and design mechanical systems, technologies and processes, can formulate, conceptualise and solve complex or incompletely specified manufacturing problems by combining knowledge in mechanics and other fields, as well as manage activities of the teams composed of the specialists of various areas and levels. Access to professional activity or further study: Access to professional activity: The graduate can work in the areas of research, design, manufacturing, organisation and management of maintenance as well as other engineering fields, carrying out expert-consulting activities in various companies, research institutions and companies providing engineering services and technical support. Access to further study: S/he has access to the third cycle studies.
