Automation Engineering




It has become difficult to imagine life without automation engineering. That does not only concern the industrial production but also areas where it is normally not expected. For example within trade, environmental protection and engineering, traffic engineering, agriculture, building engineering, and medical engineering. Automation engineering is a cross-section discipline that requires proportional knowledge in hardware and software development and their applications. In the past automation engineering was mainly understood as control engineering. This picture has changed since the onset of computer engineering. Today an automation engineer must combine the knowledge of a computer scientist, a hardware developer, a control engineer, a motive power engineer, and a communication engineer. An automation engineer can experience an immediate sense of achievement by leading and working from the production to the realization of complex tasks. Almost no other career is as versatile as the automation engineer. It is innovative, CREATIVITY- ORIENTED.
