BEng Mechatronics and Robotic Systems

Mechatronics and robotic systems are new branches in engineering that are applicable to every sector of society. Remotely operated vehicles on Mars, programmable washing machines at home, and automated robots in manufacturing assembly lines are just some of the applications of mechatronics and robotic systems. These products are essentially mechanical in nature but could not function without electronics and computer control systems.

The Mechatronics and Robotic Systems programme at XJTLU is a new cutting-edge major for a fast-growing industry. Students on this programme can learn and apply technologies in mechanical engineering, electronics, electrical engineering, control engineering and scientific computing. Graduates will be able to design, integrate, and test complete mechatronic systems and products.

Why should I study Mechatronics and Robotic Systems at XJTLU?

• Our mechatronics laboratories are equipped with comprehensive Arduino/Raspberry-Pi kits that support students working on robot-based projects such as autonomous cars, bionic robots, and quad-copters.
• Students will use and master state-of-the-art industrial software/hardware platforms to put acquired knowledge into practice, and to invent, design, develop, analyse, and operate mechatronic systems.
• Student will have opportunities to participate in field trips and internship programmes in robotics and automation companies around the Yangze River Delta region.
