Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing), Dialogic (discussion, interview, brainstorming), Laboratory work
  • Contact teaching - 39 hours per semester
  • Home preparation for classes - 24 hours per semester
  • Preparation for an exam - 24 hours per semester
  • Writing a seminar paper - 24 hours per semester
  • Preparation for a credit (assessment) - 24 hours per semester

Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to provide students with elementary theoretical knowledge in field of systems theory and control, and to build skills in the creation of simulation cybernetic models in MATLAB\Simulink.
Students will be able to use mathematical tools for the analysis of logical, continuous linear and fuzzy control systems, based on which they can design a mathematical model and apply and analyse it in MATLAB and Simulink.
Prerequisites
N/A

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination, Written examination, Home assignment evaluation, Work-related product analysis

The assignment is contingent upon the student's attendance at seminars (laboratories) and the satisfactory completion of continuous tasks set at seminars. The examination is an oral examination that follows the written test.
