Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) with a specialisation in Mechatronic Engineering
Macquarie University - North Ryde
Overview
Sophisticated robots that are used to defuse bombs, deactivate mines and explore shipwrecks wouldn’t exist without mechatronic engineers – engineers who bring together technologies from mechanical design, electronic systems, telecommunications and computing.
The Mechatronic Engineering specialisation will equip you with skills to design and construct the robots and their computer systems that will be responsible for creating the autonomous future. You’ll learn how to apply modelling, measurement and simulation techniques, and design software tools to solve problems in a broad range of electromechanical engineering areas, such as robotics , automation, control systems and relevant manufacturing processes. You’ll develop knowledge to design, implement, test, deploy and consider the long-term maintenance of large interdisciplinary (electronic, mechanical, software) systems.
