Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering (Honours) / Bachelor of Science (pre 2019)

The University of Newcastle

About

From the control of robots to the optimisation of modern vehicles, from the design of appliances to biomechanics, Mechatronics Engineers become involved in a diverse range of exciting modern technologies.

This may also include the design, automation and operational performance of electro-mechanical systems.Combined with an Engineering degree, a Science degree opens up a diverse range of employment opportunities in private industry and government organisations in cutting edge areas such as nanotechnology, telecommunications, fibre-optics, laser technology, medical physics, organic electronics and photovoltaics.

This combined degree opens up these and many other future frontier of technological breakthroughs to students.Students should note that the Physics major is currently the only Bachelor of Science major available in this combined program.
