Engineering (Mechatronics) / Business, Double Degree Bachelor / Bachelor (Hons)

Robots can’t replace you if you’re building them.By studying a Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering at UON you open yourself up to a wide range of engineering challenges and opportunities.You will become an engineer capable of solving the world’s greatest challenges. As a mechatronics engineer you may develop companion robots to help care for our aging population. You could design drones that assist in search and rescue operations following a natural disaster. Or, join our team of precision mechatronics researchers and work on medical solutions such as an endoscopic ‘pill robot’ for non-invasive 3D imaging and intervention.What is mechatronics? Mechatronics engineering is concerned with the synergy of electrical, computer and mechanical technologies that lead to new solutions to industrial problems. Students study a diverse range of courses in areas such as technical design, automation and operational performance of the electromechanical systems used in industries such as defence, advanced manufacturing, mining and health. This means that you will learn a variety of mechatronics engineering concepts, skills and practices as part of your degree.Why complete two engineering degrees? Broaden your engineering expertise to open up a wider range of career opportunities. Your skills in electrical and electronic engineering will provide expertise in the design and building of systems and machines that generate, transmit, measure, control and use electrical energy essential to modern life.
