Can university studies prepare you for the new challenges of 21st century industry? Definitely yes! the study program Computer Support of Mechanical Production will enable you to gain knowledge about the most modern production technologies, materials, production machines and their control. All this applied in the conditions of Industry 4.0 using the most modern digital technologies. A wide range of CAx software tools will allow you not only to design and model new products or equipment, to design technological production processes, but also to virtually simulate their behavior in real operation. An erudite team of teachers will prepare you for the application of CAx software in practice such as CAD modelling at a certified level, CAE simulation of the production technologies and CAM programming of the production on CNC machines. As a graduate you will also acquire other professional-specific competencies and skills, on the basis of which you will be able to communicate with other professions and components participating in the provision of production (economics, management, construction, supply, etc.).
