Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Credit conditions:
1. Completion of all exercises (100% attendance) and fulfillment of conditions of continuous control of study (concretization in exercises).
2. Processing homework.
Exam:
The exam is combined, has a written and oral part and verifies the student's comprehensive knowledge of the subject.
Controlled instruction is exercise. Exercises are compulsory. Attendance at seminars is checked and the level of knowledge is checked by solving practical tasks. Missed lessons must be completed with another group, or in exceptional cases by assigning homework on the topic. The level of elaboration of this work is evaluated by the teacher.

Aims

Learning outcomes of the course unit The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the current state and possibilities offered by electrical machinery technology for applications in production machines and equipment. Learning outcomes of the course unit The aim of the course is to achieve basic knowledge at a level so that students are able to apply the above devices and their components in their profession and to orientate themselves in the wide market offer of individual manufacturers.

The acquired knowledge and skills enable students to master the design of contemporary production machines, equipment and systems, both mechanically and electrically.
