After completing Western Engineering’s Common First Year, you can enroll in the Mechatronic Systems Engineering program. Throughout the program, you take core courses in Electrical and Computer Engineering (including basic circuit theory, computer design, software design, embedded computing and control systems) as well as core courses in Mechanical and Materials Engineering (including dynamics, material properties, machine design, and thermodynamics). Mechatronic Systems engineers combine mechanical, electrical, computer, control and systems design to create smart solutions to everyday problems. As a Western Mechatronic Systems engineering student, you will take fundamental courses in electrical, computer, and mechanical engineering, while simultaneously taking core Mechatronic Systems engineering courses that connect all of the programs.
