Welcome to Mechatronic Engineering

Mechatronics is an engineering discipline which deals with studies the integration of mechanical, electronic and computer technologies in a wide range of machines and systems. Mechatronic systems can be found in most industrial machines, many domestic appliances, as well as in intelligent machines such as robots and unmanned aerial vehicles. The Curtin Mechatronic engineering major offers a sound theoretical core in the key disciplines of mechanics, electronics and computer systems, as well as a strong practical emphasis in project and problem based learning units which give a real world focus to theoretical concepts. Project work is undertaken from the second year onwards, culminating in a major design or research project in the final year of study.
