ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Mechanics + Electronics + Computing = Mechatronics

The Bachelor of Engineering in Mechatronics Engineering is a truly multidisciplinary program that combines the core competencies of mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, and computer science. Students learn to analyze, design, and integrate complex intelligent systems used in robotics, automation, manufacturing, and smart devices.

From digital logic and electric circuits to control systems and sensors — every semester builds toward the ability to design complete, functioning mechatronic systems. A mandatory summer internship and senior project bring real industry experience before graduation.

  • Robotics and automation systems
  • Control engineering and sensors/actuators
  • Mechanical design and thermodynamics
  • Digital circuits and computer programming
