About this course
Bachelor of Engineering in Mechatronic Engineering, a robotics engineering degree centred on the integration of mechanical systems, electronics, and control theory. Core topics include Programming, Systems Design, Circuit Design, Computer Architecture, Embedded Systems, Signal Processing, Microelectronics, Control Systems, Statistics, Mathematical Modelling, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. The programme is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology to fully meet the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partly for registration as a Chartered Engineer. The first year establishes core foundations through modules such as Circuits, Digital Systems, Electronic Systems and Devices, and Engineering Mathematics, alongside practical laboratory sessions. The second year progresses into applied engineering with modules including Applied Electromagnetism, Control and Systems Engineering, Electrical Machines and Drives, and Programming and Modelling Mechatronic Systems. The final year involves substantial independent research through the Part III Individual Project Phase 1 and Part III Individual Project Phase 2 modules. Students can further tailor their studies by choosing from various optional modules spanning advanced engineering topics such as Automotive Chassis and Powertrain, Control System Design, Power Electronics, and Robot Kinematics and Dynamics.
