Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students are able to use the program MATLAB and Simulink, high-tech software packages, which are used in the field of automation and generally in praxis. The acquired knowledge will continue to be used in the preparation of protocols, tasks, and projects. After graduating from the course will gain insight about how to use computer technology to the solution of typical problems in the automation as well as in technical practice.

Prerequisites

The subject knowledge on the secondary school level is required. Especially physics and math (matrix calculus)

Co-requisites
