Automation Engineering involves the design, development and implementation of sensor and robotic systems for applications across a wide range of technological sectors. Modern engineering systems employ a broad spectrum of technologies, which when integrated provide for improved efficiency, quality and reliability. The combination of Mechanical, Electrical and Electronic Engineering with Computer Technology, namely, Mechatronics, is core to this endeavour. This integrated approach is becoming increasingly important in modern technological environments. This programme is delivered from a multi-disiplinary perspective, thus equipping graduates for a diverse range of modern technological roles.

Excellent! The qualification is appropriate to those wishing to take up employment in high tech. sectors as high calibre technologists. Typical industries include Medical Device, Pharmaceutical and Electronics Manufacturing. Many graduates are now finding employment with high technology companies across Europe and beyond.
