Graduate profile

Description
A graduate of the doctoral study program "Production Technologies" is able to plan and initiate solutions to complex problems and research projects, including the formulation of goals, means and methods in the field of development in the field. area. He can carry out his own scientific and research activities as a doctoral student, the result of which is the dissertation itself.
Learning objectives
The goal of the doctoral study program "Production technologies" is to continuously build on and develop the knowledge acquired in the second degree of university studies so that he acquires a systematic, comprehensive and comprehensive set of knowledge in the comprehensive field of mainly progressive production technologies and acquires a deep knowledge of theories, sophisticated methods and procedures of science and research at a level corresponding to international criteria and will be able to formulate information about the outputs and conclusions of scientific, research and development work at an international level and manage large-scale research tasks and teams. The graduate must be able to ensure the operation of production-technological systems and improve their operating parameters, independently manage and creatively solve complex tasks of production enterprises. A graduate of the doctoral study program Production technologies in the field of mechanical engineering also has excellent and extended theoretical knowledge in the disciplines of computer support and the application of CA systems in the field of progressive production technologies, automation of technological processes and the possibility of their application in manufacturing enterprises, taking into account the aspects of automation of various types of production also from the point of view social, ethical, environmental and other criteria. Based on the above, the knowledge, skills and competences of graduates correspond to the relevant level of the Qualification Framework in the European Higher Education Area. Knowledge (level 8): The graduate has a systematic, comprehensive and comprehensive set of knowledge in a specialized field, including knowledge and understanding of the relationships to other parts of the field, and to related fields, he has a deep knowledge of theories, sophisticated methods and procedures of science and research at a level corresponding to international criteria. Skills (Level 8): The graduate can actively acquire new knowledge and information, critically analyze and reevaluate them, and use them in theory and practical applications for the development of the field. scientific and innovative development in the field and in related fields and use it in the direction and development of the field, with the integration of knowledge from different areas. Competencies (level 8): The graduate is able to plan and initiate the solution of complex problems/projects, including the formulation of goals, means and methods in the field of development in the field. He is able to assess and modify his own professional activity in a wider context, in relation to the long-term impact in the given field and from the point of view of social, ethical, environmental and of other criteria, he is ready to formulate information about the outputs and conclusions of scientific, research and development work at the international level and to manage large-scale research tasks and teams. Link to the relevant level of the formal education system: Completion of the study program of the third level of higher education. Proof of education obtained at the given level of the qualification framework University diploma and diploma supplement obtained after completing the study program of the third level of higher education.
Main learning outcomes
Graduates of the study program "Production technologies" are able to apply for the highest positions in manufacturing and non-manufacturing companies in the field of technology or management, but above all they are able to plan and initiate the solution of complex problems and research projects, including the formulation of goals, means and methods in the field of development in the field they know how to assess and modify their own professional activity in a wider context, in relation to the long-term impact in the given area. The study subjects are systematically organized into individual semesters of teaching, where in the first semesters the student will acquire a scientific approach to solving individual tasks according to the nature of the dissertation topic, by completing which he will acquire the necessary theoretical knowledge of the set issue. The main part of the study is oriented towards the doctoral student's own scientific research activity, the result of which is the dissertation itself.
Professions
Professions for which the graduate is prepared at the time of completion.

Employability

Evaluation of the study programme graduates employability
Graduates of this study program can work in the research and development departments of manufacturing companies using cutting-edge computing technology, in higher management positions, in the management of departments using computing technology for the development of new products and their production, in the institutes of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, in the faculties of technical universities and technical universities as independent researchers. They can also be applied in companies and enterprises focused on the sale and use of computer production support systems, where a higher level of technical education is required. The study program "Manufacturing technologies" in doctoral studies is a stable study program, but due to the fact that it is the third degree of study, due to the low number of graduates, according to https://uplatnenie.sk, it is not possible to evaluate the percentage application in a relevant way, however, based on feedback from practice partners as well as the graduates themselves, it is possible to state that graduates of the study program are successful on the labor market.
