Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Mechatronics)

Mechatronics is a growth industry combining mechanical, electrical and electronic engineering, and computing. Benefit from QUT’s close links with industry. Mechatronics engineering is the hybrid discipline of mechanical, electrical and electronic engineering, and computing. This degree provides you with skills in all these disciplines to enter the growing industry. You'll benefit from our close links with industry and may be involved in projects such as QUT Motorsport: our student-run motorsport team that designs, engineers, builds and markets a single seat electric race car for the Formula SAE-A competition. Mechatronics engineering is the design and maintenance of machinery with electronic and computer control systems, such as aircraft and power generators, to work in the high-tech fields of automated systems and robotics. Engineers who can manage the disciplines of mechanical, electrical and computer engineering simultaneously are becoming essential across all industrial sectors: manufacturing and process industries, primary production and mining, and the service and health industries. If you are interested in technical and engineering work, mechanical equipment such as robotics, physics and mathematics, a career in mechatronics could be for you.
