The field of study Management and Production Engineering prepares specialists

to perform tasks in the field of agri-food production engineering and non-food processing engineering of biological raw materials, including: designing new and improving existing production processes and systems, planning, organizing, controlling and controlling processes, supervising management systems, logistics, and asset investment management, formulating tasks in the field of management technology, technology transfer and innovation. Has engineering and managerial knowledge in the field of production and processing of bio-based raw materials for food and non-food purposes. He knows the basic issues of micro and macroeconomics, marketing, economic law, operational research and specific conditions for the production and processing of agricultural raw materials, as well as the methods of cost accounting and investment effectiveness assessment. He has knowledge in the field of processing techniques and technology, logistics and production and service management. He is prepared to manage production processes in agri-food production engineering, organize and manage personnel and coordinate the work of employee teams, participate in the implementation and implementation of research and development related to technological and organizational innovations, and participate in work on technical and organizational consulting.

Graduates after completing the 1st degree major Renewable Energy Sources and Waste Management have knowledge of technical engineering tasks and shaping the environment in the field of renewable energy sources and waste management. The graduate is able to cope with the tasks of operating devices, installations and facilities used to obtain energy from renewable sources and in the field of waste management. Has detailed knowledge of renewable energy, including investment engineering tasks, basic economic and legal knowledge necessary to understand non-technical conditions of engineering activities. He knows the basic methods, techniques and technologies used in solving simple engineering tasks and allowing to use and shape the potential of nature in the field of renewable energy and energy. He can produce and process biological raw materials into engine and boiler biofuels. He can design and use technologies for producing producer gas, biogas, vegetable oil methyl esters, second and third generation biofuels, briquettes, pellets and charcoal. He also has the skills to construct and use photovoltaic cells, solar collectors and heat pumps. In addition, a graduate of engineering studies, after completing the waste management module, solves the problems of collecting production and municipal waste management. His professional competences also include the operation of technical devices in composting plants, wastewater treatment plants and hazardous waste processing and disposal plants.

Graduates of the first degree in the field of Transport and Logistics are prepared to work in the developed form as TSL. The graduate has a company dealing with enterprises, activities and development in the logistics industry, related to the transport sector and national law and law in the field of logistics. It is prepared to use the technology of transport infrastructure and logistics infrastructure to design logistics systems and storage space, with the use of. computer technician. We understand the principles of standardization and resource management in logistics as well as warehouse management and control mechanisms, as well as transport and logistics processes. We obtain methods and IT systems supporting decision-making processes in decision-making processes in logistics, decision-making processes in the city center, and control. Special technological and technical expertise in the field of construction, operation and maintenance of transport, integrated, technical, storage and provision of transport services. The acquired practical knowledge is at the station of achievements in the field of transport economics and logistics as well as diet-related discipline, including professions and workshops of products and forest products. The graduate knows how to achieve content in the field of transport and logistics in action in this field

Graduates after completing the 1st degree of Mechatronic Engineering studies have knowledge of the design and operation of mechatronic systems used in production processes and computer systems in mechatronics. The proposed scopes of the content of major subjects were selected in such a way that the graduate would acquire knowledge, skills and competences that can be directly used in engineering activities of the contemporary labor market and allow him to work in production positions equipped with mechatronic systems in many industries, including the food sector. The graduate has knowledge in the field of construction, principles of operation, design, calculation and selection of power supply, executive and control elements, dynamics modeling, digital simulation, motion visualization and control with the use of computer aided, and is also able to use modern computational tools and apply computer techniques in technology. Has the ability to use modern devices (PLC programmable controllers, controllers based on artificial intelligence, real-time control systems.

Graduates of the fields of study at the Faculty know a foreign language at the B2 level and have the ability to use a specialist language in the field of study and are prepared for the concept of second-cycle studies.

Second-cycle studies - Masters
