The research group conducts research in the field of education focusing on the approach, application and influence of new techniques and teaching methods on the quality of higher education on an undergraduate and a graduate study level. Cooperating with other research groups and laboratories at the Faculty, mathematics, physics and applied engineering knowledge and skills are transferred in LABUS, which includes students (and teachers) of primary and secondary STEM field schools. These activities include presentations of research and professional work carried out in the Faculty's laboratories of applied engineering knowledge and skills in the fields of applied physics, robotics, automation, computer engineering, information technologies and technical skills by using modern teaching methods based on real experiment measurements, IT support in analysing data, virtual instruments in experiment modelling and experiment simulations. The research groups activities focus on the implementation of socially responsible learning which is recognised as an efficient way of connecting students and university professors on the one and civil society organisations and a wider community on the other hand.
This should assist students in finding their first job positions, i.e. connect students with the labour market. The research group develops and takes care of the implementation of sustainable socially responsible learning programmes thus educating the general public about the possibilities of modern STEM technology and encouraging students to participate in educational programmes to acquire STEM field competencies and skills necessary for developing new technologies as a prerequisite to successfully participate in the labour market. Also, the research topic analyses the application of cutting-edge methods in ESP teaching, including the use of games, experiments, digital tools, and artificial intelligence.
