Course detail
Design of Control Systems
FSI-GRV Acad. year: 2025/2026 Summer semester
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with design, programing and commissioning of control systems for manufacturing technologies. Teaching is solved in the form of exercises in which the individual design steps and their practical demonstration will be discussed. Knowledge will be consolidated and acquired in the framework of solving individual projects.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Assessment methods and criteria linked to this course: course-unit credit is awarded on condition of having attended the seminars at least 80 % and worked out a semestral project on a given topic. Specifications for processing individual projects will be specified at the beginning of the semester.
Attendance at the exercises is checked. Absence may be in justified cases compesated for via special make-up work.
Aims
The aim is to acquaint students with the methodology of designing, programming and commissioning control systems for manufacturing technologies used in industry. Another goal is to consolidate this knowledge within the projects.
Students will learn to analyze, design and commissioning control systems for production technologies. They will gain practical experience from their own independent work in processing the project of the selected technological workplace in the form of semester work. At the same time, they will learn to work independently in the given area.
