One of the primary advantages of Mechatronics Engineering is its wide range of usefulness and
application. Within the many field of Mechatronics it is often advantageous to develop ones specific
skills within a certain aspect of the discipline; allowing for a more efficient and focused study.
Given below are five specific groupings of the discipline. These five groupings are accompanied by
recommended courses that would further ones education in those fields.
Electrical and Mechanical Hardware Systems Design
A key aspect of Mechatronics is the development of robust mechanical-electrical systems. This field of
study drives the innovations capable not only in Mechatronics, but in other disciplines as well. These
technical electives introduce the student to tools that are driving todays industry
