Solve tomorrow’s challenges with a mechatronics and robotics degree
With advances in technology and unprecedented worker shortages, industries are increasingly
relying on robotic applications. Historically, separate individuals with expertise
in computer engineering, electrical engineering and mechanical engineering designed
machines, but as manufacturers move toward more technologically driven automated systems,
there is a growing demand for professionals with experience in all these areas. The
Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering at Trine University will equip you to develop automated systems and smart solutions
to solve tomorrow’s industry challenges.
The degree: Mechatronics and robotics core built on an engineering foundation
Trine University’s Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering degree is built on mechanical and electrical engineering principles, with an additional
mechatronics and robotics core that prepares graduates for the practice of robotics
engineering at the professional level. You will graduate the program with a breadth
and depth of knowledge to address technical issues.
The experience: Test principles through hands-on lab work
Courses in the Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering will give you a foundation in the theory of mechatronics and robotics engineering,
enhanced through laboratory experimentation and design. You will graduate with not
only a wealth of engineering knowledge, but the hands-on experience and skills employers
desire.
The result: A successful career in a growing field
Your Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering degree will allow you to pursue a variety of graduate studies, engineering careers
and continuing education. Mechatronics and robotics engineers can work in industry,
laboratories or engineering offices, and can be involved with research in emerging
fields such as bioengineering and nanotechnology.
Annual salaries for mechatronics and robotics engineers typically range in the $70,000s
and $80,000s.
With projects that have application in areas including education, medicine and industry, Trine University’s 22nd annual Allen School of Engineering and Computing Design Expo will offer members of the public the chance to see the knowledge and skills of Trine University students on display.
