The aim of this two-year program is to provide students with a qualification in Engineering at the Masters level. Students will gain advanced technical knowledge in Mechatronics, an area ANU has world-leading research strength. Mechatronics graduates are highly sought after because their combined knowledge and cross-discipline skills in three major engineering areas: mechanical, electrical, and computing. This allows them to participate in and lead multi-disciplinary teams in research and product development, in automation and manufacture, in computing and electronics, offering exciting career prospects. The program contains a targeted professional development component as well as an opportunity to select electives from other areas of study anywhere in the University.

Upon successful completion, students will be able to: Apply systems-engineering approaches to address complex and multi-disciplinary real-world engineering problems Demonstrate a high level of technical knowledge in subjects relevant to mechatronics and associated technologies. Communicate effectively with colleagues, other engineering professionals and the broader community using a range of communication media and tools Work professionally as an individual and in a team environment Demonstrate knowledge of engineering research methods and carry out applied research in the area of modern mechatronics systems.
