The Mechatronics Engineering program is an integrated and interdisciplinary field, providing knowledge blocks in mechanical engineering, electrical – electronic engineering, and programming engineering. Students in this major combine these knowledge areas to design, manufacture, and operate intelligent machines and equipment such as robots and integrated–flexible manufacturing systems.
The Bachelor’s program in Mechatronics Engineering at EIU is designed with a balance between theory and practice. It aims to provide human resources with the mindset and skills in machine design, control systems, technical programming, and system integration to meet the needs of modern manufacturing. Students gain exposure and practical experience through internships and training at enterprises. In addition, Mechatronics Engineering students also develop an understanding of social and humanities issues related to business, environment, government, history, language, culture, and international relations.
Training orientations of the specializations within Mechatronics Engineering include:
Robotics Engineering: provides in-depth knowledge in modeling, calculation, design, manufacturing, and control of robots and autonomous systems. Students can directly participate in the processes of designing, manufacturing, and controlling robots such as industrial robots and autonomous robots or devices.
Integrated Systems: provides in-depth knowledge in designing and integrating systems based on Industry 4.0 technologies such as robotic systems, MES, digitized devices, and integrated systems. Students can work and directly contribute to the innovation process of manufacturing enterprises.
About the School of Engineering
Offering majors in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Automation and Control Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering, the Faculty of Engineering focuses on enhancing learners’ capabilities and creating added value through highly integrated and continuously updated training programs.
PROGRAM HIGHTLIGHTS
The Mechatronics Engineering program has been accredited at the program level in accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Education and Training and is periodically updated in a modern direction, based on the standardized frameworks of ABET-accredited programs.
The curriculum provides a solid foundation in natural sciences and mathematics through general education courses. Core disciplinary knowledge is broad, covering areas such as mechanical design and manufacturing, electrical and electronic engineering, microcontrollers, control systems, and technical programming. Specialized knowledge is sufficiently in-depth in two orientations: Robotics Engineering and Integrated Systems.
The program is designed with a balanced combination of theory and practice, with a strong focus on developing students’ engineering design thinking and problem-solving skills.
Active teaching methods are applied, such as problem-based learning (PBL) and project-based learning (PjBL), complemented with supplementary knowledge to help students develop logical thinking, teamwork skills, problem-solving abilities, report writing, presentation, management, and self-learning skills—ensuring adaptability to corporate working environments.
Students have the opportunity to practice and experiment with state-of-the-art equipment at the Industry 4.0 Innovation Center and the Advanced Manufacturing Center with the latest technologies. They directly participate in robot design and control, as well as address real-world challenges through projects in equipment digitization, IoT, smart factories, and smart warehouses in industrial production.
Graduates are required to achieve a minimum English proficiency of IELTS 6.0, providing a strong foundation for competitiveness and effective communication in international environments.
All teaching and learning materials are entirely in English.
Students also engage in scientific research alongside faculty through projects in collaboration with enterprises, solving real-world industrial problems—helping them consolidate knowledge and enhance professional skills.
After graduation, students are well-prepared to pursue postgraduate studies at prestigious universities both domestically and internationally.
Moreover, students have opportunities to participate in experiential learning activities in countries with advanced industrial technologies such as the USA, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore.
