From February 24 to February 26, 2026, our Master's (Ing.) students participated in a series of professional excursions across Slovakia and the Czech Republic. During these three days, they had the opportunity to visit top-tier production and R&D facilities, witnessing the connection between theory and modern practice.
What did we see during the excursion?

Automotive Innovation: We visited the development centers of Aurel Polygon and Aurel in Mladá Boleslav.

The World of Motorsport: Students gained behind-the-scenes insights into the professional teams of Šenkýř Motorsport in Brno and Škoda Motorsport.

Automation: We toured the Škoda Museum and explored modern automated production lines.

The main benefit was observing industrial robots in live operation and viewing examples of fully automated lines for the production of components and hygiene products. Students had the opportunity to see firsthand what high-end automation in the field of manufacturing technology looks like in real-world conditions.

Finally, we would like to thank the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at TUKE (SjF TUKE) for the financial support provided, without which this successful event would not have been possible.
