Process Control
The graduate of the study programme process control (study field cybernetics) has a deeper knowledge of the theory of control and information processing, the methods of design of HW and SW resources, the design and use of information technology of automatic control systems and the methods of system diagnostics thanks to the deepening of knowledge from natural sciences. It prepares the student for independent design of automatic control and information systems, their implementation and operation with contextual reasoning. The theoretical knowledge and practical skills and abilities enable him/her to be employed in practice or in research. The core of the graduate's knowledge consists of advanced methods of systems control, optimization, methods of designing components of automatic control systems, methods of designing complex automatic control systems, modeling and simulation of systems, information security of control systems, intelligent control systems.
The graduate of the study programme Process Control has experience in formulating sub-tasks of research, leading a team in solving tasks and in pedagogical work. The graduate also has practical experience and skills in working on complex experimental equipment and computer systems, in processing research results, in creating and maintaining documentation, in preparing and presenting research results.
The complexity of the graduate's profile guarantees a smooth application on the labour market. Graduates of the process control study programme can be employed in the development, design, implementation and operation of control systems. Deep theoretical knowledge and practical experience allow the graduate to apply in the field of research, but also in the managerial field at all levels of management.
Prospects of graduates
PROCESS CONTROL
(Field of study2647 Cybernetics)
The doctoral degree study in the study programme Process Control is intended for graduates of the second degree of university study (Engineer / Master / Master of Science) who tend to have an original solution to engineering and scientific problems in the field of management and control of transport and technological processes. To solve these tasks, the doctoral student uses the latest knowledge of modern analytical and numerical methods, methods of mathematical and physical modelling, informatics, measurement of electric and non-electric variables, microelectronics, electrical power engineering, automatic and discrete control up to the level of artificial intelligence, including the implementation of control by appropriate processors, as well as knowledge from other fields. A prerequisite for successful completion of the doctoral degree study is the ability of the doctoral student to think abstractly and his / her ability to apply and implement acquired knowledge in solving technical problems.
The graduate of the doctoral degree study in the study programme Process Control acquired knowledge based
on the current state of scientific knowledge and by his / her own creative activity he / she will contribute to the development of this knowledge as well as to new findings in this field. The aim of the doctoral degree study is to educate such an expert who will not only have comprehensive knowledge but will be able to enrich science and knowledge in the field of process control.
The graduate acquired deep theoretical and methodological knowledge and practical experience in the main
areas of process control (including processes related to security) such as the theory of automatic control, system theory, process control, control systems, logic and event systems and also in the field of secure communication and information processing.
