Mechatronics Engineering - BEng

Is it for you?

The demand for engineers with knowledge in mechanical, electrical and computer engineering is surging. Be prepared to meet this demand, and create technologically advanced products that make our day-to-day lives safer, smarter and more efficient. You’ll start by focusing on the foundations of engineering science, programming and electric circuit analysis. Then, you’ll gain specialized knowledge in modern control theory, microcontrollers, intelligent systems and robotics. 

With a senior capstone design project for an industry partner, an opportunity to enrol in a paid co-op program, and optional specializations in Management Sciences and Engineering Innovation and Entrepreneurship, you’ll graduate with the technical skills and solutions-oriented experience needed to create real-world solutions for employers.
