Department of Mechatronic Engineering

Mechatronic Engineering

INTRODUCTION

Mechatronics is an emerging area of engineering arising from the increasing integration of electronic intelligence into mechanical systems. This discipline is a hybrid between Mechanical and Electronics Engineering. Alternative names are Mech-Electro Engineering and Electro-Mechanical     Engineering.    

Mechatronics is a multidisciplinary field comprising the principles of mechanical, electrical, computer and controls engineering. At the intersection of several engineering fields, mechatronics aims at providing a unified solution that connects various stages of design and production processes into a single, streamlined system.

  • Be competent mechatronic engineers who are knowledgeable, skillful and able to solve complex engineering problems.
  • Have inclination towards research and lifelong learning and be able to promote entrepreneurial ideas. 
  • Be effective engineers with leadership qualities and high morals and professional ethics.

Notes:

  1. COREN request the addition of STA 112 - Probability I in Level 100. The department recommends that it should me be merged with CCMAS GET 305: Engineering Statistics and Data Analytics
  2. COREN also recommends addition of PHY-104 (General Physics III). The department recommends merging this course with KHAIRUN-MCE 501 (Mechanical Vibration).
