Entry knowledge

Students are expected to have the knowledge acquired in the course of previous study, namely in fields of theory and technology of machining, material science, metrology, mathematics, physics. English language is necessary.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Graded course-unit credit is awarded on condition of having attended the seminars and worked out the final project including its presentation. Students are assessed according to the design and production of the selected part. Compulsory attendance at exercises, esp. in labs. It can be substituted on an agreement with the teacher with consultations on the solved topics at a professional workplace outside the faculty, or by visiting a technical library, grandfair, exhibition, etc.

Aims
