About
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.
Areas of study
Electric and magnetic interactions; embedded systems; engineering dynamics; engineering mathematics; engineering physics; feedback control and dynamic systems; hardware, design and systems; linear circuits and devices; mechanical design; microelectro mechanical systems; robotics and automation; signals and systems; wireless mechatronics.
Career opportunities
Automation engineer, building management system engineer, consultant, control system design engineer, designer and manufacturer, electronic engineer, mechatronic engineer, medical and technology device engineer, project manager, research and development manager.
Practical experience
You’ll undertake a work-integrated learning activity with a partner organisation.
Professional recognition
This degree is accredited by Engineers Australia.
