The discipline content design “Fundamentals of Automation and Telemechanics” for the sustainable development of competencies within the framework of educational programs

Abstract

The trajectory generation is necessary to achieve sustainable development and the formation of the competencies of a specialist in the field of railway automation and telemechanics and communications. The trajectory is formed through studying the disciplines of the curriculum. The discipline structure is an important factor for the formation of competencies. The article studies the matters related to the discipline content design “Fundamentals of Automation and Telemechanics” for students in the specialty “Train Control Systems” of various specializations. It is shown that despite the fact that the discipline “Fundamentals of Automation and Telemechanics” belongs to the core courses of the educational program, for the sustainable development of the competencies of students of various specializations, it should have a different content. An exemplary discipline content for various specializations is proposed. The formed competences are presented. Along with possible training methods.
