Teaching activities
Teaching activities are conducted at the Department of Metrology, Electronics and Automation in two departments - the Department of Metrology and Automatics and the Department of Electronics. A team of 4 professors, 16 doctors of technical sciences and 10 masters of engineering conduct classes for students of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Silesian University of Technology in Gliwice, and implement programs of selected subjects for students of other faculties of the Silesian University of Technology.
Lectures, exercises, laboratory and seminar classes are conducted in the following fields of study:
Electrotechnics:
- full-time two-cycle studies in Gliwice;
- full-time one-cycle studies at CKI in Rybnik;
- full-time doctoral studies in Gliwice;
- one-cycle extramural studies in Gliwice and CKI in Rybnik;
- supplementary second-cycle extramural studies in Gliwice;
- one-cycle extramural studies in Gliwice and CKI in Rybnik;
- extramural doctoral studies (3rd cycle) in Gliwice.
Electronics and telecommunication:
- full-time two-cycle studies in Gliwice;
- supplementary, second-cycle, full-time studies in Gliwice
- one-cycle extramural studies in Gliwice;
- one-cycle extramural studies in Gliwice;
- extramural doctoral studies (3rd cycle) in Gliwice.
The subject of classes conducted by the Department for students of 1st to 3rd degree studies covers six main areas:

The curricula implemented by the Department's employees correspond to the contemporary challenges of science and technology. Continuous modernization of laboratories enables students to learn about modern technologies currently used in industry. The curricula are complemented by trips to modern industrial plants and leading research institutes, participation in presentations of innovative technologies and apparatus, as well as professional and scientific internships in Poland and abroad. Students can deepen their interests in the field of electronics in the Science Club - Elektronik Praktyk. The Department conducts international scientific cooperation, among others from the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt in Germany and the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece.
