Mechatronics Engineering Degree Information

Mechatronics Engineering is an innovative degree combining practical skills from mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and computer science. Graduates will be well-skilled at the immense hands-on application of robotic technology and can select from a wide spectrum of industries for career choices.

  • Program educational objectives are benchmarks for career and professional accomplishments that the degree program prepares graduates to achieve during the first few years following graduation. The mechatronics engineering program seeks to produce graduates who:

    1. Apply technical knowledge to specify, design, develop, and test systems and applications. 
    2. Demonstrate career advancement with increasing responsibility in the Mechatronics Engineering industry or allied disciplines.
    3. Demonstrate effective research and development skills in lifelong learning in graduate education and professional development in Mechatronics Engineering or related fields.
  • Student outcomes describe the knowledge and skills acquired by students who complete the program. Students completing the program will have:
    1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
    2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors
    3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
    4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts
    5. an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives
    6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
    7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
