Using hands-on experiences, the Mechatronics degree will prepare students to diagnose and repair a variety of automation systems such as mechanical, electrical, hydraulics, pneumatics, PLCs, and robotics. They learn the importance of how each system is integrated in the automation process. There is an extensive focus placed on troubleshooting and how it is applied to electromechanical systems.

Program Outcomes

Upon completion, students will be able to:

Troubleshoot electro-mechanical systems
Program automated systems
Construct fluid power systems
Install mechanical systems
Install control systems
Install electrical systems
