Minor Program in Mechatronics


Faculty of engineering offers a Minor Program on Mechatronics for undergraduate students  of the Faculty of Engineering. Mechatronics is a methadology and design philophy which blends areas of technology involving analysis and design of the behaviour of systems of sensors, measurements drives, actuators, as well as their microprocessor based controls. A mechatronic sysstem is multidisciplinary, embedding several fundamental disciplines; electrical and electronics, computer science and information technology and mechanical engineering design methodology. The main purpose of this program is to provide the successful and motivated students within broad knowledge of mechatronics that will enable them to practice their profession in an interdisciplinary manner.
