Computer Support of Mechanical Engineering (CSoME)

The study programme is focused on the preparation of experts who are able to systematically and comprehensively solve technological, material, design and organizational tasks in modern engineering production, and have knowledge of engineering informatics and engineering technologies, which they integrate with knowledge of an economic nature, thus enabling graduates to solve problems of production management and operation at all levels. The study programme is focused on the development of CAx technologies and their implementation in engineering production. Graduates attain the mastery of CAD / CAM / CAE systems and re able to become full-fledged members of Parallel Engineering System.

During my studies, I gained an overview of DP technologies and materials that I use every day at work. One of the reasons for my acceptance into the development of ŠKODA AUTO was the broad overview in the field of production (and the ability to apply it directly in various work situations), which I acquired during my studies.

Studying at FME was very beneficial for me. During my studies, I came into contact with innovative devices, one of which was a device for full-area analysis of deformations on mouldings, which was rather unique in Slovakia at that time. This experience helped me to apply in the field right after graduation.
