Learning outcomes:
These lectures are designed for students who are not taking the specialist areas Automation Engineering or Power Engineering. The content of the lectures is drawn from the fundamentals taught in the modules Systems Theory and Industrial Control Technology. The aim of this module is to convey the basic concepts and methods used to develop applications and solve problems in the field of automation engineering. The basic principles and skills acquired by students in this module will enable to learn them in their later careers those specific aspects of automation engineering that are of direct relevance to their professional work.
