Additional information
The module provides Fundamental, Professional, and Technological Skills in the multidisciplinary process of Designing, Developing, Deploying and Monitoring of Software-Intensive Automation Systems in Factories, with special attention to the Automatic Gathering, Processing, and Integration of Information from Sensors and Actuators to Enterprise Information Systems. The studies are targeting graduates who will work for any of the Automation Value Chain Stakeholders, including: providers of Run-Time packages, Devices and Automation Suppliers, Machine Builders, System Integrators, and End-users. The studies in addition to provide the student with knowledge on the latest emerging and disruptive technologies within the field, also present the latest societal challenges affecting the field such as the aging of the population, the need for energy efficient Factories, and the integration of Factories in the Future Smart Cities. Contact person for the study module is professor Jose L. Martinez Lastra.
