Organization of studies at a university, use and integration of knowledge from individual subjects, linking theory with practice. 3. Use of information sources, searching for information in databases, use of tools for supporting science, copyright and publishing, use of copyrighted works, citations, citation managers, plagiarism. 4. Basics of design activities, conducting research, preparation and implementation of engineering projects. 5. Basic principles of model creation, use of simulation tools, interpretation of outputs, verification. 6. Introduction to work in the laboratory, preparation and organization of an experiment. 7. Basics of team work, division of tasks and activities, validation of selected procedures. 8. Implementation of an experiment, time planning, setting goals, setting priorities, work efficiency. 9. Processing and interpretation of measured data, possibilities of using designated SW resources. 10. Processing of technical report, document structure, working with styles, template creation. 11. Creation of electrical diagrams, block, overview and assembly diagrams, use of schematic symbols, related standards. 12. Introduction to advanced data work, creating clear tables and graphs, using regression. 13. Final completion of technical report, rules for writing semester and final theses.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing), Dialogic (discussion, interview, brainstorming), Methods of individual activities
  • Contact teaching - 26 hours per semester
  • Home preparation for classes - 24 hours per semester
  • Term paper - 40 hours per semester
Learning outcomes
Students will gradually become familiar with the characteristic features and specifics of engineering work in connection with selected engineering disciplines, which include the basics of electrical engineering, mechatronics and automation. The course will also focus on some problems of organizing laboratory work - preparation, management and evaluation of an experiment, including the preparation of a technical report and presentation of results. The course is a basic starting point for students to realize how knowledge from individual subjects needs to be integrated during their studies.
After completing the course, students can design and organize a simple experiment, process measured data at a basic level and create a clear technical report, or other necessary documentation. Students can work in a team and effectively divide their work into sub-stages. They demonstrate knowledge in the field of creating basic diagrams, use schematic symbols correctly, can correctly use literature and cite the used information sources.
Prerequisites
unspecified

Assessment methods and criteria
Home assignment evaluation

The student must demonstrate, during the semester and during the credit, that he/she has understood the issues discussed. The teacher will inform the students of the specific requirements in the first week of the semester. Active participation in exercises is required, including completing all assigned tasks and completing the credit test.
