Mechatronics is a multidisciplinary field of engineering that integrates mechanics, electronics, computer science and control theory. It is at the cutting-edge of creating smarter products, devices and processes.
As a mechatronics engineer, you will develop, improve and optimise the performance, features and functionality of products from cars to medical and surgical devices. The processes and production lines used to make these and many more are also mechatronic in nature.
The applications of this field are virtually unlimited and you will be highly in demand as a professional in this progressive field.
