Brno University of Technology Bachelor, Master and Doctoral Programmes Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication Electrotechnical disciplines were first taught at the university in 1905. Since 1959 when an independent Faculty of Power Engineering was founded, and subsequently transformed into Electrotechnical Faculty, over 22,000 students have graduated from the faculty. In 2001, the faculty received a new name Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication (FEEC) and newly composed structured programmes were accredited in accordance with the Bologna Declaration. At the present time, there are more than 220 teachers and 4,000 students in all forms of state-supported study programmes. The faculty provides qualification in all fields of electronics and communications technology, biomedical engineering, cybernetics, control and measurement, computer science and engineering, power electrical engineering, electronic devices and systems and electrical manufacturing and management in Bachelor, Master and Doctoral study programmes. The Faculty is oriented to wide spectrum of scientific fields: control engineering and robotics, biomedical engineering, electrical and electronic power engineering, electrical and electronic technology, microelectronics, radio electronics, and telecommunications. The Faculty researchers together with students achieved world-recognized results mainly in mobile robotics and space program. The rescue robot Orpheus became the winner on World Championship 2004 in Padova and our communication modules were installed on experimental satellite PHASE 3D and on International Space Station. Study in Brno Brno has traditionally been a centre of education, and is among the cities with the highest concentration of schools and research institutions. It is the seat of six universities with more than 60,000 students and 15 research institutes. Brno is also a technological hub of R&D national centres of IBM, Siemens, ABB, Honeywell, ON Semiconductor, FEI, Symbol Technologies, Motorola and other leading companies. There are more than 10 permanent theatres in Brno. The city is represented by its own concert ensembles and a wide network of museums, galleries, libraries and cinemas. Among periodical events, the most popular are music festivals (Brno Spring Festival, Moravian Autumn, Spilberk Summer Festival) and exhibition of applied graphics. Numerous sporting grounds, sports and entertainment centres, a motor-racing centre, a sport aviation airport, a golf club, six yachting clubs,
together with the nearby woods and Brno reservoir, contribute to the pleasant and cultural atmosphere. Brno is the city of greenery, surrounded by romantic countryside. Within 50 km around the city, there are many attractive sites for tourists - castles, cultural monuments and natural landmarks. International Office The FEEC International Office assists international students by providing information and services regarding course requirements, accommodation, immigration, financial matters, health issues, Faculty procedures, regulations and qualifications. The Office develops and monitors the ever-increasing links between the Faculty and other higher education institutions. The FEEC has several student and faculty staff exchange schemes through university bilateral agreements and cooperation programmes between Czech Republic and other countries. FEEC participates in several European Union teaching, research and exchange programmes.

Bachelor Programmes Study Programmes The faculty has implemented the recommendations of the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) and has made teaching procedures compatible with similarly oriented universities in the world. This provides for short and long term study periods for foreign students, exchange of academic staff members and for mutual recognition of qualifications. The faculty supports the studies of its students at foreign universities and vice versa, teaching of foreign languages and seeks cooperative partners abroad. The faculty provides qualification in the Bachelor, Master and Doctoral study programme Electrical, Electronic, Communication and Control Technology (EEKR). Professionals in biomedical engineering are educated in the interdisciplinary Bachelor programme Biomedical Technology and Bioinformatics (BTBIO). Three-Year Bachelor Programme EEKR The Bachelor study programme Electrical, Electronic, Communication and Control Technology provides university education in all fields of power electrical and electronic engineering, communication and control technology. The Bachelor programme is focused on education of operation engineers qualified in the design, operation and applications of electric and electronic circuits, devices and systems. The students are educated in various areas of applied electronics and communication technology, teleinformatics, power electrical and electronic engineering, microelectronics and automation and measurements. There are five study areas: Automation and Measurements Electronics and Communication Microelectronics and Technology Power Electrical and Electronic Engineering Teleinformatics Three-Year Bachelor Programme BTBlO The Bachelor study programme Biomedical Technology and Bioinformatics is provided mainly to those interested in professional practice, but also to future students in the follow-up Master study areas focused on biomedical engineering, medical informatics and mathematical biology. Graduates in this specialization have a good theoretical knowledge
in mathematics, physics and chemistry, a basic knowledge of biology, human anatomy and physiology required for understanding of the principal biological processes in human organism, and are capable of communicating with doctors and medical staff. They get acquainted with the principles of operation and use of medical devices and medical informatics including communication with them. They are provided with information on medical legislative to be applied in professional practice. The Bachelor study programme includes an obligatory four-week professional training. The training can be completed in an arbitrary company of electrical and electronic industry, or of communication and other electronic medial providers in the Czech Republic and abroad. Graduates in Bachelor programmes can continue their education in the Master degree programme, where specialized university education is provided in basic and applied research, development and design and operation in the following eight areas: Cybernetics, Control and Measurements, Electronics and Wireless Communication, Biomedical and Ecological Engineering, Microelectronics, Electrical Manufacturing and Management, Power Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Power Electrical Engineering, Teleinformatics.
