** Lecturers might have changed, so compare it to your schedule.

1. Control Theory, dr Arent:

As the name suggests, general theory on system control (advanced MUD for those from AiR). Lecture content: lecture notes provided by the lecturer rewritten on a whiteboard with additional explanation. Laboratories: Matlab projects. Reports' requirements are quite thorough and you need to show your work during the next laboratories and send the report with "anything". Classes are difficult to understand. Subject ends with an exam - questions are provided by the lecturer before the exam, so you can prepare answers. This was the first time dr Arent prepared this subject so it might look different now.

2. Modelling and Identification, prof. Mzyk, dr hab. Wahel:

Probability, stochastic methods - most of this stuff was already covered during studies. You can find prof. Mzyk's lecture notes on the Internet, but they are sometimes in Polish only. Lecture has abcd test at the end. Laboratories with dr Wahel: Matlab or any other language with capabilities to plot, generate random numbers and perform mathematical calculations (Python, Julia will do), 3 reports but they are quite extensive.

3. Mathematical Methods of Automation and Robotics, prof. Tchoń:

Advanced abstract mathematical concepts used in robotics described using difficult words. There is a book on the subject available on the Internet under the same name written by the lecturer. Classes - tasks seem difficult, but they have a very clear scheme as I found out a the end of the semester. There is a practical test at the end of classes and if you pass it with a grade good enough you don't have to write a theoretical exam during examination session.

4. Applied Logic, dr Żeberski:

This subject must be a joke, because you won't understand anything after the second lecture. It looks like there should be another subject before that one, but it got lost somewhere between numerous syllabus changes. Advanced logic where everything is proven from axioms. There is a test at the end of the year - grades are random.

5. Embedded Systems, dr Budzyń:

Lecture on everything related to embedded systems - microcontrollers, peripherals, memories, registers etc. Lecturer has a huge industry knowledge and his lectures are filled with knowledge to the extend where 5 people writing in one Google Docs document are not able to note everything. I personally recommend attending lectures. Laboratories are focused on programming STM microcontrollers (low level, no StdPeriph or HAL) and there were some exercises with FPGA at the end. Difficult but very interesting subject. There are 2 open-question tests during semester (in our case the one at the end was not carried out).

6. Physics, dr Radosz:

Physics, really general ideas on modern physics presented in not-very-interesting manner. There is a test at the end with well-known questions, but marks are random and you might end up writing the test 2 or even 3 times before being given a positive mark.

7. Social Communication, dr Postawa:

You need to prepare a seminar on the subject related to social communication or psychology in general (other roughly related subjects will do too).

8. (for Polish students only) English B2+ with mgr Brzózka:

The most interesting English lessons you have ever had. Unusual nuances of English (and Polish) presented in a very clear and funny way.
