VEHICLES AND ENGINES
The graduates in the second degree study programme Vehicles and Engines are able to analyse, design, construct, operate and maintain large-scale technical systems of vehicles especially in the field of automotive vehicles and their power drive subsystems. They are able to use solutions with a high degree of creativity, complexity, autonomy and responsibility. They have a thorough knowledge of basic theoretical disciplines of mechanical engineering (engineering mathematics, mechanics of vehicles, elasticity and plasticity) as well as in the field of construction and design of vehicles and their subsystems. They have a general overview of mechanical engineering production and its management, expert knowledge of the theory of road and rail and combustion engines. They gain instruction in the field of public transport means, technical means of combined transport, maintenance technologies, and optionally, of the aircraft power plants, too.
Their deepened and expanded knowledge of theoretical and practical subjects enables the graduates of the master´s degree study programme Vehicles and Engines to find and present their solutions to problems of research, development, projection and construction of transport means, especially vehicles and their systems. The graduates can creatively apply their knowledge in practice, critically analyse and apply the full range of concepts, principles and practices of the field in the context of loosely defined problems, and demonstrate effective decision making regarding selection and use of methods, techniques and tools. They are able to implement complex technical solutions, to utilise modern methods and tools in order to solve problems. The graduates of the second degree study programme Vehicles and Engines are able to work effectively as individuals or as team members or team leaders, to cooperate with the superior units, to continually increase their qualifications, including the development of technical and managerial skills, to keep in touch with the latest developments in their discipline, to follow appropriate practices in accordance with the rules and professional, legal and ethical framework of their subject field.
The graduates are able to design and to provide modern construction solutions of vehicles and their subsystems using advanced computer-aided technologies. They are able to find work in operation of vehicles, especially rail vehicles, road vehicles, internal combustion engines, hydraulic and pneumatic machines and equipment for their diagnostics, maintenance and repairs. The graduates meet conditions for the further education in the third (doctoral) degree studies, especially in the study programme Rail Vehicles.
