Occupational Profiles of Graduates
The ever present increase in production efficiency, quality and optimization, demands a constant exploitation of integrated and advanced automation concepts in both technical and non-technical systems (eco-systems, economic systems, medical systems, etc.). Therefore, the programme strives to insure that engineers graduated through it find a wide variety of employment and advancement opportunities: they will be able to identify, analyze, understand and solve problems in different environments, from industrial plants to non-technical settings. They will be competent to work with modern industrial automation, with supervision, remote control and data acquisition systems, as programmers and hardware or software engineers, in academic institutions and/or research centers, etc.

The Programme Learning Outcomes
Students gain extensive fundamental and practical knowledge from all disciplines in system engineering, control theory, automation and robotics. The acquired knowledge and skills are based on modern scientific knowledge in the fields of automation and robotics, computer information technologies, process control, management, bioengineering, cybernetics in medicine, measurement-process technology, industrial internet of things, etc. Students will gain knowledge of:  presenting, modeling and analyzing the behavior of systems of different natures (not only technical ones), application of methods, techniques and tools for mathematical systems analysis and problem solving using a systemic approach,  comprehension of methods for information processing and data acquisition in the control and automation systems, analysis and synthesis of automatic control systems, robotic systems, artificial intelligence and machine learning systems, intelligent control systems and more,  application of control systems elements (hardware and software modules) for process automation, automation of manufacturing plants, computer-controlled systems, electromechanical systems, and process measurements and actuators, analysis and design of SCADA systems for various industrial processes, computer process control and remote control, work with highly automated robotic systems etc. Using the acquired knowledge, the engineer of this study program will be trained for creative thinking and problem solving, individual and team work, effective communication, decision making and lifelong learning. This is all expected to make them well suited for and competitive in the domestic and the European labor market.
