Template:Unreviewed Automation engineering Automation engineering is a field of science combining engineering and the management of information, so that different systems can work effectively in every aspect such as cost of production, quality of products, safety of work, environment and ability to adjust production rates to respond to the demands of the market as well as the administration and management in the industry.

Automation engineer Automation engineers are experts who have the knowledge and ability to design, create, develop and manage systems, for example, factory automation, process automation as well as building and home automation to make the systems work by themselves or require a minimum number of personnel. Learning about Automation engineering is the integration between standard engineering fields and management Information technology. engine and management information technology means information technology, communication, networking management and information management.

Work and career after graduation Graduates can work for both government and private sector entities such as industrial production, companies that create and use automation systems ,for example paper industry, automotive industry or food and agricultural industry. Graduates can work on other systems that are not industries such as building and home automation ( which use computer controlled energy and security through a communication system called building and home automation)

Job Description Information systems relate to the creation and application of technology to monitor or control the production and delivery of products and services by the International Society of Automation and the Automation Federation. Automation engineers can design, program, simulate and test automated machinery and processes that will complete the work . Automation engineers usually are employed in industries such as car manufacturing or food processing plants, robots or machines used for implementation. Automation engineers are responsible for detailed design specifications and other documents in their creations.


Necessary skills Automation engineers must have these qualities as defined by U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) • Understand about computer programming and software development

• Ability to solve the problems of equipment and perform complex system tests

• Creative thinking

• Detail-oriented personality

• Excellent proficiency

• Ability to communicate well with other members of the development team
