Tecnología Y Automatización Industrial-IN196-201502

Industrial Technology and Automation is a specialty course in the career of Industrial Engi-neering with theoretical and practical approach aimed at students of 10th term. The course seeks to develop competencies in industrial process technology automation and robotics as well as background knowledge of automatic control sensors actuators programmable logic controllers control algorithms and robot programming.Specific outcomes:(e.3) Identifies formulates and solves problems of industrial automation considers independ-ent and dependent variables related to the industrial organization as well as previous knowledge and the theoretical framework of adequate techniques and methodologies and proceed to its implementation and validation.(j.3) Proposals in design development and improvement consider the state of the art science and culture related to the direct and indirect environment of industrial processes and are in-cluded in the corresponding analysis of the present theme as well as the trends in sustainabil-ity of such proposals.As the third millennium begins we find ourselves in a process of fast and constant change where technology plays a key role in the globalized economy. Because the application of these technologies favors the development of more and new competencies in this new scenario every industrial engineer must have a strong knowledge of the state of the art in technological developments that contribute to this process.Through the process of interactive learning the students will gain expertise related to existing technologies delivering the theoretical foundation and practical elements that support the development of the industrial sector by applying automated technologies and systems.
