Czech Technical University in Prague

The CTU Department of Control Engineering is responsible for Engineering Track 3 in Space Automation and Control. The mission of the Department is to educate aspiring engineers in the fields of cybernetics, robotics, and control engineering (along with related fields). This mission is realized through dedicated Bachelor (BSc.), Master (Ing.) and Doctoral (Ph.D.) study programs. The professional expertise of the faculty members lies in various sub-disciplines of cybernetics, robotics and control engineering. It includes fundamental mathematical control theories, various numerical methods for modelling and simulation of dynamical systems, algorithms for control design, (including control based on real-time numerical optimization), protocols for industrial networking and both software and hardware design and implementation/realization. This expertise is strongly multiphysical and multidisciplinary, covering diverse domains such as aerospace, automotive, mechatronics, microsystems, chemical engineering, smart grids, smart buildings, combustion engines, biology/biochemistry, medicine, transport and even economics. The Department has a rich history of collaboration with local hi-tech industrial partners. For instance, some graduate projects are conducted in cooperation with companies such as Honeywell, Porsche, EATON, Volkswagen, Škoda Auto, Siemens, KUKA and Rockwell.
