Automation is the basis of modern production, energy, transport, robotics and smart technologies. It is industrial automation engineers who create control systems that ensure the efficient and safe operation of modern equipment and production. The educational program «Industrial Automation» of the Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic National University trains specialists who develop modern automated systems, combining knowledge of electronics, programming, robotics and information technologies.
The training combines fundamental training with practical work. In the first years, students master mathematics, physics, electrical engineering and programming, and later study automation of technological processes, computer-integrated technologies, robotics, modeling and design of control systems. During practical training, they work with modern SCADA systems, Siemens and Schneider Electric industrial controllers, Festo and Pilz automation tools, create embedded control systems and develop application software.
Training takes place in modern laboratories using up-to-date equipment. Students participate in real engineering projects, scientific research, conferences, competitions and hackathons. Active students can study or undergo internships at partner universities abroad and participate in international projects and form an individual educational trajectory.
After completing their studies, graduates successfully work in the field of industrial automation, robotics, energy, transport systems, electromobility, as well as in IT companies that develop hardware and software complexes. They work as automation engineers, developers of control systems and embedded software, power electronics specialists and designers of automated systems. The acquired competencies open up opportunities for professional development both in Ukraine and abroad, as well as for further training, participation in international research projects and implementation of innovative engineering solutions.
«Industrial Automation» is an educational program for those who strive to create modern technologies, work with intelligent control systems and build a successful career in one of the most promising engineering industries.
