Mechatronics

Undergraduate Program

A realistic 3-Year Mechatronics (96 Cr)

Mechatronics, also known as Mechanical and Electronics Engineering, has been defined as
the combination of mechanical engineering, electronic engineering and software engineering.
As an interdisciplinary field, Mechatronics focuses on the control of advanced hybrid
systems through the study of automata from an engineering perspective. As a matter of fact,
Mechatronic applications have become inherent in people’s everyday life. Examples include
automotive anti-lock braking systems (ABS), single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras, and
aerospace “fly-by-wire” systems.
