Master of engineering and technology / Master of engineering 

The purpose of the educational program 7M071 " Control of technical systems" is to create conditions for an effective educational process for the formation and development of personal, socio-cultural, general engineering and professional competencies in the management of production and technological processes and production. 

Relevance

Modern production and technical systems consist of a number of complex interacting subsystems – a robotic technological and automated power plants, combined into a single technical system, as well as systems for their management, automation, information, digitalization. The high level of technological effectiveness of modern technical systems in terms of a single process or the entire production requires the management of various parameters: technology, safety, reliability, quality, etc.

The development of control systems for complex technical objects concerns not only the new production facilities, but also the introduction of control elements in existing processes and production without compromising the quality, reliability and efficiency of operation. For the implementation of all stages from design to operation, it is important to train specialists capable of large-scale thinking, having a broad Outlook on the problems of technology and technologies, with the skills of applying fundamental knowledge to solve practical problems.
