Print & ShareYour qualification will be a Bachelor of Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering (Honours)
Robotics and mechatronics engineers design robots and innovate and improve the automation, performance, features and functionality of products and systems.
Robotics and mechatronics engineering combines mechanical and electrical engineering, computing, electronics and control theory. Engineers in this field work with instrumentation, sensors and real time computer systems to control movement, respond to sensors, optimise processes, monitor systems and detect faults. They may design aircraft avionics for autonomous drones, build robots for industry or medical applications, develop systems based on smartphones, help robots understand human behaviour, or be involved in the development, design and operation of processes and production lines needed to make consumer products.
