Why study at ATA

High demand for specialists in Industry 4.0

The transformations associated with the fourth industrial revolution, namely automation and robotization of production, create a huge demand for specialists who can design and control modern computer systems. Many companies are currently using advanced technologies to produce electric vehicles or automotive components.

Practical skills useful in various industries

Graduates of this specialty not only gain theoretical knowledge but, most importantly, practical skills that are used in everyday work. Knowledge of computer programming and control systems enables, for example, the design of machines used in the food industry, such as production lines for packaging food, or in the aerospace industry when creating control systems for drones.

Wide career opportunities in the growing IT industry

The specialization combines engineering with modern IT technologies, which opens doors to a career in the growing tech industry. Computer programming and database management are skills that can be used both in large manufacturing companies and startups focused on software development.

Preparation for working with the latest technologies and tools

Students acquire skills in using advanced engineering and computer tools, which are used for designing machines and controlling industrial processes. These skills are highly valued by employers who are looking for employees ready to work with modern technological solutions.

The opportunity to work in interdisciplinary teams

Students of this specialty will be able to work in interdisciplinary teams that combine engineering, computer science, and management. For example, in projects related to the construction of modern factories, such as the implementation of production management systems in automotive plants, engineers, computer scientists, and managers must collaborate to create systems that will function efficiently and safely.
