Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Mechatronic Engineering)
Nationally Recognised Higher EducationThis course is designed for aspiring professional engineers across a broad range of engineering disciplines, who seek to design, create, manage and improve complex engineering systems using cutting-edge technologies.
You can select from a wide range of specialised engineering majors, highly valued by industry and recognised internationally. Sub-majors and electives within these branches of engineering allow you to tailor your learning to your interests and encourage interdisciplinary study, providing you with exciting choices to tailor your career path.
Mechatronic Engineering Major
Mechatronic engineers work on all aspects of the smart machine, from design and testing to manufacturing. They use a combination of mechanical, electronics, computer systems and software engineering to design and build mechanical systems and their controllers, software and hardware, plus electronic processes and the networks that link them.
In this program, you’ll study dynamics (the science of moving things) and learn to calculate and control the movement and interaction of solid objects and electricity. You’ll also learn to design, build and manage automated and autonomous mechanical systems, with an emphasis on robots, smart machines, intelligent control systems and biomedical devices.
