The “Control systems” department as part of the “Electronic and automation” faculty teaches students in the specialties of “Automation, information and control engineering” (AICE) and “Industrial Engineering” (IE, in English). The department provides study in bachelor and master degree programs. The main objective of the learning process is the training of highly qualified control engineers. The knowledge acquired during the education provides the necessary set of skills for design, implementation, and maintenance of automatic control systems in technological processes, manufacturing mechanisms and devices. The advanced scientific research takes a central role in the “Control Systems” department. Both teachers and students are active participants in the scientific research process, which helps them to stay up-to-date with the latest technology advancements in the field of the automatic control systems design and application. The research work is concentrated in four main scientific areas: Automatic Control Theory, Intelligent Control Systems and Robotics, Industrial Automatization and Electric Drives Control Systems.
The department educates bachelor and master degree students in the following other specialties: “Electrical Engineering”, “Electronic Systems Design and Programming”, “Computer Systems and Technologies”, “Mechatronics” and “Industrial Management” with the courses: Control Theory, Theory of Automatic Regulation, Automatics, Modeling and Simulation, Elements and Devices of the Industrial Automatization, Computer Integrated Manufacturing, Industrial Electronics and Electric Drives, Electromechanical Systems, Electric Drives, Informatics Practice, Analysis and Design of Systems, Automatization of the Polygraphy Manufacturing, Control Systems, Process Control and Manufacturing automatization, Robotics, Automated electric drives and Programmable Logic Controllers.
The “Control Systems” department is in close collaboration with SIEMENS, LIEBHERR, SCHNIEDER Electric, ABB, AKHNATON, MILARA, and others. As a result the department has scientific laboratories equipped with the latest technological tools and training control systems. The modern technical base available in the department is an inseparable part of the study and scientific research process.
The “Control Systems” department is a partner in the international students and teachers exchange program ERASMUS+. The department has bilateral agreements for students’ mobility with the leading universities in Czech Republic, Turkiye, Poland. During their education in the “Control Systems” department the students have the opportunity for student practice in leading companies as: LIEBHERR, ABB, EVN, SCHNIEDER Electric, MILARA, NEOCHIM Dimitrovgrad, KCM EOOD, and many others.
