4 years February, July and October RM48,101 Malaysian student RM54,915 International student 2020 fees per year BACHELOR OF ROBOTICS AND MECHATRONICS ENGINEERING (HONOURS) KPT/JPT (R2/523/6/0230) 03/27 - MQA/FA7519 Industrial training Be prepared for the demands of the fourth industrial revolution RECOMMENDATION Complete Introduction to systems engineering and Digital systems at level one. CAREER PATHS The need for professionals in this progressive field is increasing. You’ll be in high demand in many fields, including: • • • • • • • nanotechnology robotics bio-engineering smart manufacturing automation automotive deep analytics. There is increasing pressure on industries to deliver better products and services at reduced costs to remain competitive. Robotics and mechatronics, central to addressing this demand, is crucial to the development of smart products and intelligent devices. It is the nexus between mechanical and electrical engineering, and is at the forefront of the Internet of things. As a robotics and mechatronics engineer, you could design the control systems for a myriad of applications ranging from autonomous vehicles to miniature robots for use in medical applications. Or you might take an everyday household product and turn it into a truly clever device. Robotics and mechatronics engineers design devices and the programs that control those devices. They’re adept at handling vast amounts of data and creating systems that make sense of data in real time so that a fully automated manufacturing facility can operate safely and efficiently, or a car can drive completely autonomously. The applications of this field is virtually unlimited. With the knowledge and skills you’ll have when you graduate, you’ll be able to design, develop, manufacture and operate the intelligent products and complex systems of today and tomorrow. This course was designed in response to the fast-paced and growing needs of the industry and our lifestyle. It equips you with skills and insights sought after by the industry, and offers a choice of specialisation in automation or AI that’ll prepare you with the essential knowledge and skillsets to redefine success for your future organisation. Monash was always one of my top choices for my undergraduate degree, with its renowned courses and perpetual investment in research and development. I also found its international vibe highly appealing and I had the perfect multicultural experience studying here.” NOWRIN ISLAM Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering (Honours) Dean’s List honouree Publicity Officer at the Institute of Engineers Malaysia 2016/17.
