Why choose Mechatronics?
Would you like to help develop technologies that can sense, think and act? On the Bachelor of Engineering programme in Mechatronics, you learn to combine mechanics, electronics and programming and create intelligent products that solve real problems in industry and society.
Mechatronics is not about being a bit of everything. It is about mastering what happens between disciplines. You learn to make machines and systems work together intelligently, so they respond precisely, efficiently and intuitively.
The programme gives you a flexible and international profile with competences that are relevant in areas such as robotics, automation, healthcare technology, energy, manufacturing, AI and autonomous systems.
Mechatronics is for you if you…
- want to develop solutions that combine mechanics, electronics and software
- are interested in intelligent products, robots, automation and data-driven systems
- want to work hands-on with technology and real industrial projects
- want an engineering degree that prepares you for the labour market after 3.5 years while still giving you the option to continue your studies
What will you learn?
On the programme, you learn to analyse, design and test products in which mechanics, electronics and software are integrated – for example in robots, automated machinery or healthcare technology.
You gain a broad technical toolbox with subjects such as mechanics, electronics, programming, power electronics, thermodynamics and data-driven methods. Theory and practice go hand in hand, and you learn not only what to do, but also how to approach complex technical challenges.
You become the engineer who can speak several technical languages and bring together specialists in mechanics, electronics and software to develop shared solutions.
Teaching methods
The programme is built around real-world problems from industry. You work on projects every semester and develop solutions that match the demands you will meet in your future job.
Teaching is in English in an international environment, and in the 6th semester you complete a compulsory, paid internship – often with a local company. Many students continue working there after graduation.
Student/teacher testimonial
“Mechatronics is not just a combination of disciplines – it is a way of thinking and developing. You learn to see the whole picture and speak to all types of engineers – and that makes you a key player in product development.”
Andrei-Alexandru Popa, Associate Professor and Programme Director for Mechatronics
