Activities to practice

This part of the brochure provides a summary of practical skills that a student should have at least a basic understanding of prior to practice and that should be practiced during practice. It is understandable that it is not possible to practice all of the areas listed during the internship; however, in order for the internship to be meaningful within the field of study, it is essential that the student practice at least some of these areas. The list of activities to be practiced is recommended, however, it is also possible to practice activities not listed here if they are related to the graduate's profile and are sufficiently professional (such cases will be assessed by the internship supervisor when reporting the internship). 

Knowledge that the student should practise in the internship

Technical and technological area

• design and construction of mechanical parts of production lines and machines
• creation of technical drawings and 3D models
• design of material properties for mechanical structures or measurement of these properties and evaluation of their quality
• performing technical tests of mechanical parts (mechanical stress, strength, thermal expansion, etc.)
• technical calculations (performance, gears, etc.)

Automation and Industrial Control

• use of PID controllers
• use of analogue and digital (intelligent) sensors and subsequent data processing
• use of pneumatic and hydraulic systems
• use of industrial communication buses and networks, use of industrial Ethernet
• designs of production control hierarchy, use of modern technologies and digitalization, use of online elements in the production process

In addition to the above areas, it is also highly advisable to practice language skills (especially professional English).
