As we enter the next industrial revolution, advanced technology demands interdisciplinary skills. Mechatronics is the interdisciplinary study of electrical, mechanical and computing systems. Students gain expertise in electrical, mechanical, and computer engineering, and explore how these disciplines are interconnected. Using the systems level approach, students develop both the applied skills and theoretical knowledge to build, troubleshoot and support next generation industrial systems. Students acquire an understanding of electronics, digital circuits, motor control, robotics, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), pneumatics, hydraulic systems, machining, dynamics, stress analysis, the internet of things, web and database systems, and interface programming. Through an official partnership with Siemens, students prepare for industry recognized certifications including the Siemens Mechatronics Systems Certification program (SMSCP) certification. Students gain experience in problem solving, and effective oral and written communications through examination of current industry trends and requirements. Co-op terms provide opportunities to experience real-life industry skills, networking, and potential career paths. A mechatronics graduate will function as a highly skilled technician or technologist who can work with modules and components in complex mechatronics systems. Graduates may find work in a wide range of domestic and international industries such as aerospace, consumer products, transportation, mining, automotive, technical sales, packaging, distribution industries or in-service sites that use complex mechatronic systems. Tasks may include the design, building and fabrication of automated systems, troubleshooting, maintenance, repairs, programming, robotics, networking, smart manufacturing, and application support.
