Master of Science in Mechatronics Engineering
1. Program Introduction/Description |
Mechatronics is an exciting, growing field that combines mechanical, electrical and control systems to create a complete device. Mostly it relates to the engineering systems, which perform relatively fast and precise motions and therefore require sophisticated electronic devices and control algorithms. The Master’s program aims to qualify the student to solve complex technical problems, design and implement complex technological products and systems in a social context. The contents of the program aim to provide the student with advanced professional competences within mechatronics engineering. The Master’s program is a full-time program which is rated at 36 credit hours. Corresponding to the work of a full-time study for 3-years average. The program consists of essential course elements related to the program’s specific professional competences and identity, elective courses and a Master’s thesis. |
