The dependence on human skills in performing a task is fast diminishing with automation taking centre stage in all processes of life. Industrial activity has embraced automation to such an extent that only supervisory skills are required. But the design, building and testing of such systems still rest with us. Hence this treatise.

Explore the tools, technologies, platforms, and languages used to create exciting new connected devices.

The Automation: Implementation in Business online certificate course will give you knowledge of the organisational, ethical, and technical challenges involved in automation technology deployment, and how to effectively prepare your business for implementation.

Electronics and Embedded Systems Development is a two-year Ontario college graduate program designed to build on students' theoretical knowledge of electrical engineering and provides training on electrical technologies, embedded systems, and computer-aided design. Graduates will be prepared for the workforce after completing a capstone project where students have the opportunity to design, implement and manage real-world solutions.

The Cognitive Automation and Its Impacts on Skill Erosion of Individuals Master Class will demonstrate how increasing reliance on automation fosters complacency at both individual and organizational levels, weakening workers’ mindfulness across three work task facets (activity awareness, competence maintenance, and output assessment), resulting in skill erosion. Such erosion of skills may go unnoticed and unacknowledged by both workers and managers.

Saskatchewan Polytechnic’s Computer Automated Systems Technician diploma at Regina Campus is perfect for those passionate about computers, smart devices, and the latest tech. This program immerses you in cutting-edge automated technologies, preparing you for a dynamic, tech-driven career.

Are you interested in the latest technologies and software – and in working within a challenging field that is constantly developing? Earn a master's degree with a unique combination of specialisations: AI and automation. We focus on applied learning, so you’ll get a lot of hands-on work in an industry-like environment in addition to your academic learning.

The Automotive Technology program distinguishes itself by seamlessly blending theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience over six comprehensive quarters of instruction. In a state-of-the-art workshop, students hone their diagnostic and repair skills on late-model vehicles. The curriculum spans an array of subjects, encompassing brake and suspension systems, electrical/electronic systems, automatic and manual transmissions, heating and air conditioning, engines, engine performance, light-duty diesel, engine machining, and cutting-edge hybrid-electric/electric vehicles.

In MIS2nano - From Minimally Invasive Surgery to Nanorobotics: a Voyage in the Field of Intervention Robotics the Seasonal School will introduce participants to the highly interdisciplinary field of technologies for minimally invasive interventions, with focuses on intervention robotics and artificial intelligence, smart materials and innovative components, micro/nanorobotics, and on how to make innovative technologies meet the clinics.

Through the Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technician - Automation and Robotics program, you gain the knowledge to build a rewarding career in the field of automation and robotics. This college diploma program focuses on automated systems, which are at the heart of virtually all advanced manufacturing and other industry sectors.

RobotCraft is a two months intensive internship and summer-course program. After the tremendous success of past editions, RobotCraft's 8th edition is coming in the summer of 2023.

In today’s technology-based industry and consumer products, there are few products that would not fall under the Mechatronics category. Mechatronics machines and products typically perform mechanical task under the directions of a digital controller using software instructions. Examples of such devices are robots, automation devices, cars, aircraft, communication devices, chemical and food processing devices, appliances, and more.

Industry is seeing a growing demand for a workforce that combines some of the traditional skill sets of building technicians with advanced skills in controls programming, networking, and systems integration. “Control Technicians” or “Building Automation Technicians” present an emerging and rapidly expanding market of high-wage employment for community college graduates. Their skill sets will also be needed for increasing green workforce demands to implement energy management, efficiency and sustainability measures in buildings.

Specialization in building automation is an emerging and growing employment opportunity, especially in the construction and property development sector. We will provide the skills and knowledge you need for building science, building automation systems, networking and project management, and green building. Upon graduation, you will be prepared for jobs in the industrial/manufacturing sector and will have the skill set expected by the construction and property development sector. Builders and property managers require people to design and integrate building control systems such as lighting, telephony, security, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), Heating Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC), air quality, energy consumption, and fire and safety. They need technologists familiar with a centralized approach, who can manage and control a building from an interface that provides building-wide efficiency, cost-effective operations, and information-sharing.
