Mechatronic products are commonly used in industry and everyday life. Designing of mechatronic products requires a edicated approach that takes into acount: interdisciplinary design, market related constraints, multifunctionality, user-friendly operation and demand of minimization of the cost of the whole product operation period. Thus designers who create mechatronic products should possess comprehensive interdisciplinary knowledge, ability to co-operate in an interdisciplinary designing team as well as team management skills, and knowledge how to use the up-to-date tools of computer aided engineering. Additionally the know-how in scheduling and carrying out prototyping of mechatronic systems is very useful.
To address the above needs the II-nd level Master study in Mechatronics of specialty Mechatronic design are carried out by Department of Robotics and Mechatronics of Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics. This specialty of study to a considerable extent bases on a project oriented type of studying, including co-operation in project teams. Such the approach leads to better understanding of specific nature of mechatronic design process and to learning techniques of solving the interdisciplinary design problems. During the study each student will take part in designing and prototyping of a mechatronic product.
The study program consists of courses on design of mechanical, electronic and control systems, as well as techniques of application of software and hardware. A quarter of the courses deal with problem of integration of mechatronic systems. During the classes students learn how to use dedicated software tools as well as testing equipment in the process of designing and prototyping of the complex mechatronic systems.
The specialty courses comprise also problems of designing of embedded systems as well as microsystems (MEMS) that are nowadays more and more often used in everyday life and industry. Thanks to co-operation between the Department and industrial partners students take part in actual research and development activities as well as attend practical trainings.
Department of Robotics and Mechatronics cooperates with many foreign universities and companies in international research projects what results in various possibilities of stages for the students. Such stays apart from getting specific knowledge also result in international personal contacts, very useful during further professional career.The instruction language of the study is Polish or English (the whole program in English).
