Stations of the institute development

 

1956
Institute of Control Engineering Faculty of Low Current Engineering University of Applied Sciences

1968
Department of Automatic Control Section Technical and Biomedical Cybernetics Technical University of Ilmenau

1990
Institute for Automation and Systems Engineering Faculty of Computer Science and Automation Ilmenau University of Technology

 

The scientific work in the institute is characterized by the interdisciplinary character of automation and by the use of means and methods of systems engineering and technical cybernetics. By linking these main components, the prerequisites are created for the effective and efficient handling of automation and systems engineering tasks in all areas of industrial production on the basis of process engineering or manufacturing processes, but also in such areas as water management, agriculture, ecology, services, medicine or in information processes in design and decision-making processes. This opens up a broad field of application for graduates of technical cybernetics and fields of study in automation and systems engineering.
