Introduction
The M.Eng in Mechatronics is a one year, full-time programme and the mode of operation is based on the modular system. It consists of a taught component extending over two semesters, with a Mechatronics project taken over the third semester.
Aims
- To provide a competence in automated hardware and software systems and the ability to apply them to specific cases in a manufacturing setting.
- To provide a knowledge of trends and current approaches in manufacturing such e.g. Industry 4.0 and how these provide a competitive advantage in a global manufacturing context.
- To provide an insight into how automated manufacturing systems function in a global economy and to develop some management skills in this area.
Graduate Profile
The programme will equip graduates for careers manufacturing and automated manufacturing systems.
Typical careers include:
- Automation Engineer;
- Manufacturing Engineer;
- Manufacturing systems group leaders, junior project managers, manufacturing line managers;
- Research and Development Engineers;
- Doctorate Postgraduate Studies.

Curriculum
Programme Content
The M.Eng in Mechatronics is a one year, full-time programme and the mode of operation is based on the modular system. It consists of a taught component extending over two semesters, with a Mechatronics project taken over the third semester. The project presents a piece of significant original work with high analytical content. The programme comprises core and optional modules which allow one of two pathways to be taken through the programme. One pathway has an emphasis on mechanical design, the other pathway concentrates on software and control. The course comprises 12 modules in total.
