Course Description

The overall aim of this programme is to ensure graduates have a comprehensive engineering education combined with specialist knowledge of mechatronics engineering recognised in the professional engineering community by an accredited degree. This ensures that graduates are equipped with the appropriate knowledge and enterprising spirit to practise professionally and ethically. Thus, the programme will:

  • Address industry’s demand for graduates who can integrate the principles and applications of mechatronics engineering, and apply them to the analysis and synthesis of engineering products and systems across the engineering sector
  • Enable students to pursue professional careers in the mechatronics engineering field at a level which requires the exercise of sound judgement, and initiative, and the ability to make informed decisions in complex and unpredictable circumstances that reflect a responsible, ethical, and socially aware outlook
  • Furnish students with a detailed understanding of the principles of electrical engineering, electronics and mechanical engineering science, enabling the rational selection of the most appropriate approach to solve engineering problems
  • Engender a top-down, systems approach to the analysis, synthesis and realisation of mechatronics products and systems.
  • Provide a broadly based education in electrical engineering, electronics, mechanical engineering and design allowing scope for entry into a wide range of disciplines within the engineering field.
  • Require students to participate in a group project where the project team members are drawn from a range of cognate engineering disciplines
  • Develop the ability to research unfamiliar subject areas in mechatronics engineering and cognate disciplines, thereby enhancing the creative aspects of engineering design and innovation
  • Require the application of the knowledge and skills, in an appropriate industrial environment, thereby broadening the student’s knowledge of industrial procedures and practices

(At the successful completion of Level 6, an exit point exists so that the student is able to receive BEng (Hons) Degree. If the student opts not to take BEng (Hons) Degree he/she may proceed to Level 7 and obtain MEng (Hons) Degree.)
