Mechatronics and Robotics BEng/MEng covers the integration of mechanical, electronic and intelligent control sub-systems to realise a complete system, which may be a product, machine or process.
The multidisciplinary nature of mechatronics employs design principles, processes, models, toolsets and philosophy unique to mechatronics engineers which enable the design and development of simpler, more economical and reliable systems.
Mechatronics and Robotics engineers are in short supply, and enjoy highly versatile careers due to their multidisciplinary skills.
Our full-time degree course in Chelmsford covers a unique balance of key analytical subjects and professional skills, ensuring that you’re well-equipped to face challenging engineering situations in industry. The management skills necessary to operate successfully as a multidisciplinary engineer in industry are promoted and developed at all stages of the course.
At ARU, our expert staff are experienced industry professionals and researchers who will guide and advise you throughout the course.
All our engineering courses are in line with the new Engineering Council requirements (AHEP 4.0). Accreditation for our MEng (Hons) Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering degree has been arranged with the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMeche) when full student output from the course is available.
