The Course
Mechatronics is the synergistic integration of mechanical engineering with electronics and intelligent computer control in the design of products and manufacturing processes. It includes the use of robots and automated machine tools and manufacturing systems. This course provides you with a solid foundation in electronics, mechanical engineering and computing systems. You will acquire the necessary core competencies in the areas of automation, robotics, mechatronics design, programmable logic controllers, electro-pneumatics, vision systems, computer numerical control, computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing, sensors, virtual reality, computer programming, and microcontroller and control engineering. Besides being technologically competent, you will also develop effective communication skills.
To better prepare you for the industry’s advancement in technology, this course offers subjects that cater to certain technological areas or specialised industries. If you are keen to pursue a career in the aerospace industry, you may take the Aerospace Engineering option offered to you during the second year of your course.
Alternatively, you may choose any one of three Cluster Electives in your final year. These Cluster Electives involve technology areas such as: Process Control & Automation, 3D Design & Visualisation and Robotics. Both the Aerospace Engineering Option and the Cluster Electives allow you to specialise in an exciting field with great prospects, and still get a broad-based training in other popular mechatronics areas. Besides being able to match your interest and aptitude to one of these areas, you will find yourself more industry ready upon graduation.

Career Opportunities
You can excel in industries as diverse as electronics, manufacturing, food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical and aviation, where you can be involved in engineering, R&D work, equipment design and development, planning, project management and marketing research. You are also qualified to work in high-tech manufacturing environments and the growing petrol-chemical industry. You can also pursue degree programmes in electronics, mechanical or computer engineering, both locally and overseas.
The market opportunities and benefits to be gained from designing smart products and automated systems with an integrated use of electronics, mechanical and computer technologies are huge, and will continue to grow rapidly in the coming years. Firms that design and produce such products will increasingly need graduates who are competent in the field of mechatronics, providing abundant job opportunities for you.
