Program Description
Mechatronics is the multidisciplinary field integrating contributions from electrical and electronics engineering, mechanical engineering, computer engineering and control enginnering. Research topics range from intelligent robots to smart materials. The Master's Degree Program provides the students with the opportunities of specialization in a variety of directions in this field. Core and area elective courses are offered to this end. Students are encouraged to participate in research projects.
Program Objectives
The goal of the graduate education in Mechatronics is to integrate basic engineering disciplines into a meaningful program for educating graduates who are conversant with all of the relevant technologies needed to create modern and smart products. The future mechatronics engineer is able to work across the boundaries of constituent disciplines (mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science) to identify and use the appropriate combination of technologies that provide the best solutions.
Qualification Awarded
The Master 's Degree in Mechatronics Engineering ( second cycle inMechatronics Engineering) is awarded to the graduates who have successfully completed all courses in the curriculum.
