What will I learn?

Learn how to create smarter machines, from autonomous robots to self-driving cars. Using advanced mechanical, electrical and control engineering, you'll explore a range of innovative products and systems. The combined skills you'll learn will be highly sought-after within the engineering and manufacturing sectors. Mechatronics is the combination of mechanics, electrical and control systems. We find it in devices such as- autonomous robots, self-driving cars, complex construction equipment. This 4-year integrated master's degree provides the core topics you'll need to master mechanical engineering. It then gives you the advanced skills to be able integrate electrical systems and mechanical devices. You'll spend this extra year at an engineering firm, applying the skills and knowledge you've learned so far.
