(subject-specific competences)

  • demonstrate understanding of the physical laws and phenomena on which the function of products and technologies is based;
  • demonstrate mastery of the most important concepts of higher mathematics and numerical mathematics;
  • demonstrate mastery of basic technical knowledge from the fields of mechanical engineering (technical documentation, mechanics, thermodynamics, machine elements, technological processes, quality) and essential complimentary disciplines (metal and non-metal materials, electrical engineering, information technology and organisational science, economics);
  • demonstrate knowledge of basic measuring instruments or measuring chains for the measurement of basic magnitudes in the field of mechanical engineering;
  • demonstrate knowledge of the main environmental restrictions and problems;
  • demonstrate knowledge of some necessary programming tools for the computer processing of data;
  • demonstrate mastery of basic and essential specific knowledge in their selected field of study (POWER, PROCESS AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING, PLANNING, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE; PRODUCTION ENGINEERING, MECHATRONICS, AVIATION);
  • autonomously carry out development and applied, engineering and technical organisational work and address individual well-defined tasks in the field of mechanical engineering.

Assesment and completion:

Students' knowledge is assessed by means of practical exercises and seminar papers, and also via products, projects, performances, services, etc. and by examinations. Examination performance is scored as follows: 10 (excellent); 9 (very good: above-average knowledge but with some mistakes); 8 (very good: solid results); 7 (good); 6 (adequate: knowledge satisfies minimum criteria); 5–1 (inadequate). In order to pass an examination, a candidate must achieve a grade between adequate (6) and excellent (10).

Progress:

In order to progress to the second year, students must pass first-year examinations totalling at least 45 ECTS credits.
In order to progress to the third year, students must have passed all first-year examinations (60 credits) and second-year examinations totalling at least 40 credits.
