bachelor of engineering and technology 

The purpose of the educational program 6B071 "Аutomation and energy efficiency of processes and production" is to create conditions for effective educational process for the formation and development of personal, socio-cultural, general engineering and professional competencies in the field of automation, management and energy efficiency of processes and production. 

Relevance

Automation of technological processes and production characterizes the level of industrial and technical progress of industry, transport, agriculture, etc. Currently and in the future, industry, economy, education will be subject to large-scale and widespread introduction of digitalization, the basis of which is the automation of technological processes and production. The main goal is to increase productivity, safety, environmental friendliness and efficiency, improve the quality of products and services, improve the reliability and accuracy of production.

In addition, resource conservation and energy efficiency are one of the strategic objectives of any state of the XXI century. The efficiency of industry, transport, agriculture largely depends on the energy costs of their work, so new and existing facilities that need thermal and electric energy should introduce modern and promising methods and technologies, use new equipment and equipment. In order to reduce the negative impact of traditional energy and improve the environmental situation, Kazakhstan actively uses renewable energy sources, which corresponds to the priority state tasks.

The creation of a complex of software and hardware tools for managing various processes within the technology, production, enterprise requires the training of high-level specialists and knowledge on a wide range of issues. Of course, to solve such problems of a particular technological process or production, specialists are needed who will conduct a system analysis, create and implement complex projects for automation, energy efficiency and energy saving, development of "green" energy. This educational program is aimed at creating conditions for the training of such specialists.
