G7 Automation, Computer-Integrated Technologies and Robotics

G7 Automation, Computer-Integrated Technologies and Robotics brings together engineering, computing and the design of automated systems. At the Department of Automation of Energy Processes, the current bachelor’s programme is titled Intelligent Industrial Automation. Study connects the physical processes found in energy and industry with the software and control systems that measure, model and operate them.

Information and operational technologies

Information technology (IT) supports software, databases, interfaces and analysis. Operational technology (OT) connects sensors, controllers, machinery and production systems. Automation engineering works across both: it turns process requirements into a control strategy and integrates equipment with the software and data systems used to monitor it.

Areas of study

• Programming and data: algorithms, software development, databases and web technologies used in engineering systems.
• Measurement and control: process instrumentation, modelling, automatic control, and the analysis of how a physical process responds to a control action.
• Industrial control: PLCs, human–machine interfaces, SCADA and supervisory systems, industrial networks and communication between automation components.
• Connected and intelligent systems: robotics, Industrial Internet of Things, data analysis, machine learning and digital-twin methods where included in the specific programme edition.
• System integration: combining hardware, software and process knowledge to design, test and maintain an automated installation.

The department’s bachelor’s study page describes the G7 professional programme, while its master’s page describes the professional master’s route. The educational programmes page links to programme editions and elective catalogues; the study-plans page links to cohort and academic-year documents. Those source documents are currently published in Ukrainian unless an individual file is labelled otherwise.

Possible professional directions

Graduates may pursue roles in industrial automation, control-system integration, software for industrial systems, process engineering, robotics, technical project work or further research, depending on their experience and the requirements of each employer.
