Objectives

- To provide a good theoretical and practical education for students who plan to work as cybernetic engineers and a solid foundation for graduate students
- To develop the ability to collaborate and communicate with colleagues as well as people who are not cybernetic specialists. On completion of the programme it is expected that student will be able to work with a wide range of other users, including specialists from other fields.
- To develop relevant understanding of ethical considerations in relation to cybernetics, and stimulate reflection on development and application.
- To be able to meet the need for maintenance and user service, by emphasizing cybernetic systems in the study program.

Study structure

Teaching is in the form of lectures, labs and practical projects, with and without supervision.

Methodology and project oriented approach are particularly emphasized in this programme. Many of the subjects also require the completion of individual projects and group projects.

The faculty makes extensive use of lab work, Internet and web technology in creating an active and challenging learning environment for the students.

Organization

Each year of study is divided into two semesters, with the following main structure:

Year 1: Basic courses, math, computer programing, Math and physics.
Year 2 Real time computer programming. Cybernetics, Knowledge Based system and Artificial Intelligence. The specialization is culminating in the completion of a main project (small thesis).
