General information:

Category	Theoretical-methodological
Scientific or art field	Automatic Control and System Engineering
ECTS	6

Students gain theoretical and practical knowledge about optimal, nonlinear and other advanced control systems and algorithms.

The acquired knowledge is used in solving practical engineering problems, but it can also serve as basis for further professional and scientific development.
