6

Mode of study

Not applicable.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students will learn the methods of designing production machines and their construction nodes.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of the structure of machine tools and knowledge in the field of mathematics and physics.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures. According to the possibility of teaching can be organized lectures for students by practitioners and excursions to companies focused on activities related to the course content.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

The course is taught in the form lectures and seminars. The exercise is completed by the credit. To acquire the required 100% participation from the presented term project. Exams when the overall classification is composed of two sub-scores (as assessed ECTS).
