About Mechatronic Systems Engineering MSc, MSc - at Middlesex University
Overview
The global manufacturing industry is being transformed by the recent advances in technology and their integration driven by the 4th Industrial Revolution. This has led to the need to develop new type of engineers for integrating such technologies. Much of this relies on high level of skills in discrete technologies but what makes them more useful is their integration.
The interdisciplinary nature of mechatronics leads the way to a variety of career options in areas such as automotive, advanced manufacturing, robotics and automation, nanotechnology, systems integration, aerospace, bio-engineering and healthcare, pharmaceuticals and renewable energy.
Mechatronics is one of these disciplines where several core engineering disciplines are blended together using systems engineering approach. This approach defines the MSc Mechatronic Systems Engineering programme and prepares graduates for the wealth of opportunities available in industry that relies on smart technologies on a global stage.
