Description
Summary:In order to fulfill the philosophy of Industry 4.0, it is necessary to introduce a large number of new topics in schools, which are difficult for students to grasp. The basic problem in teaching is the requirement of interdisciplinarity, where a student of electrical engineering automation must get an overview of mechanical and computer science topics. The skills can be divided into technical - engineering and business-management skills. In addition to hard skills, the need to introduce soft skills into the curriculum cannot be overlooked. The article summarises the necessary competences and gives a brief overview of what is taught in the field of Industry 4.0 at our workplace, together with a short comparison of other institutions.
