The Department of Machining and Production Technologies (DMPT) was founded on January 1, 2009, as a result of the restructuring of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. Its core staff comprises members from the Automation Division of the former Department of Machining and Automation (DMA).

Our educational initiatives, along with the practical demands, underscore the imperative for continuous development in content and teaching methodologies, encompassing their methodological and didactic aspects. Practical experience now increasingly calls for addressing multidisciplinary tasks and projects.

The principal aim of studying at the Department of Machining and Production Technologies is to produce well-educated graduates who can seamlessly integrate or adapt to a wide spectrum of modern activities. This endeavour involves enhancing both expertise and good character. This multifaceted process is achieved through daily collaboration between faculty and students. This collaborative effort is notably reflected in the high-quality teaching delivered by teachers and the systematic, independent study of students.

The department's mission extends beyond teaching in all forms of higher education; it also encompasses scientific research. This commitment is not confined to academic institutions but extends to establishing close interprofessional collaborations with practice.
