Learning outcomes of the course unit

The course “Technology of Production Machines, Manufacturing Techniques, Economy of Manufacture” provides students with the latest information from the field of business activities, manufacturing process, and the assessment of implemented investments. The emphasis is placed on the understanding of definitions and the principles of business in the engineering manufacture, including material and cash flows.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of machinery production and economics.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. According to the possibility of teaching can be organized lectures for students by practitioners and excursions to companies focused on activities related to the course content.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

The examination has a written and an oral part. The examination tests student’s knowledge and the ability of practical application.

Aims

The aim of the course is to make students familiar with all current conventional and unconventional manufacturing technologies in the mechanical or electrical engineering industry. Also dealt will be the typical representatives of manufacturing machines for an individual technology. Students will be cognizant of the definition of an enterprise and running business in compliance with the Trade Law, and will learn about the activities connected with the manufacture process, as well as about the methodology used for the assessment of implemented investments.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

The lessons take the form of lectures and it is very helpful to attend them because it is useful for passing the examination.
