meChatroniCs engineering
bachelor of Engineering (Mechatronics)
Duration: 4 years
campus: Joondalup
Practicum: Yes
Mechatronics engineering is the integration of electrical,
electronic and computer engineering with mechanical and
industrial engineering enabling the development of intelligent
machines and advanced manufacturing and processing systems.
Areas of study within Mechatronics include mechanics,
computer aided design and computer aided manufacturing,
analog and digital electronics, signal analysis, electro-mechanical
systems, advanced materials, sensor technology, automatic
control, robotics, system design and development and project
management.
Students will graduate with competencies in electrical, electronic
and mechanical engineering, and be able to participate in and lead
complex multi-disciplinary projects.

Mechatronics engineers have diverse employment opportunities
in most sectors of industry including product design and
development, manufacturing, mining and resource, process
control and automation, public utilities, road and transport,
defence, aerospace, and consulting.
Admission Requirements: Equivalency to Western Australia
Certificate of Education Mathematics (3C/3D) is required, and
equivalency to Western Australia Certificate of Education Physics
(3A/3B) is desirable.
Additional course Information:
Practicum Placement: During the course, students will be
required to undertake a minimum of 12 weeks practical work
experience located in an engineering industry environment.
This will normally be undertaken during a vacation period, even
though it is listed as a unit for Year 4 (ENS4111).
Professional Accreditation: Engineers Australia has granted
Accreditation to this course.
