Overview

Mechatronics engineering is a multidisciplinary program, where knowledge of mechanical and electrical/electronic engineering are combined towards the development of intelligent machines and advanced manufacturing and processing systems.

Whilst developing the strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities typical of any engineering program, this particular program is specifically tailored to Australia's resource-based and service industries. Mechatronics Engineering gives a broader engineering coverage compared with standard mechanical or electrical engineering programs with the themes of automation, instrumentation, digital electronics, manufacturing, mechanical design, fluid mechanics and control systems.

All ECU's Engineering Honours courses have a common first year.

Prerequisites

Satisfactory performance in Mathematics Methods ATAR, with equivalents considered, and Physics ATAR or Engineering Studies ATAR or Chemistry ATAR or Mathematics Specialist ATAR, with equivalents considered.

It is desirable that all students have Physics ATAR or Engineering Studies ATAR, with equivalents considered.  Students without Physics ATAR or Engineering Studies ATAR, may be required to complete a bridging unit during the first year of their studies.
