Results
Knowledge (knowledge and understanding)
Students can prove that they know and understand the most topical scientific theories and facts related to mechanics, engineering and transport and communication, know modern scientific research methodology and methods in the professional field and in relation to other fields of science.
Skills (ability to use knowledge, communication, general skills)
Students can independently evaluate and select the methods that are appropriate to scientific research in transport and communication or mechanics and engineering.
The achieved results give a new understanding of existing knowledge and its practical application, and help to implement voluminous original research a part of which reach the level of internationally quoted publications.
Students can communicate, both orally and in written form, with scientific circles and society in general about their own field of scientific activity, computer simulation and optimization of transport systems functioning, automated methods of designed products optimization, technological methods of vehicle safety improvement, calculation and design methods for vehicle precision modular systems.
Students can independently upgrade their scientific qualification and carry out scientific projects in the field of transport and engineering with achievements that correspond to the international criteria of the research field.
Students can manage research or development tasks at transport systems enterprises, institutions and organizations where wide research knowledge and skills are required.
Competence (analysis, synthesis and evaluation)
By applying independent critical analysis, synthesis and evaluation, students can solve important research or innovation problems in the field of transport systems.
Students can independently propose a research idea, structure and manage large-scale scientific projects including those on an international scale.
