Mechatronics and Robotics British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT)

Program Description

Mechatronics and Robotics offers the integration of mechanical and electronic components, or mechatronics, and it is possible to design intelligent, reliable, versatile electromechanical systems such as industrial robots, medical devices, aircraft simulators, automated assembly lines, building control systems, and autonomous vehicles. The Mechatronics and Robotics program is a unique, multidisciplinary combination of courses that blends knowledge in electronics, mechanics, and computer programming to provide you with both the theory and practical skills you need to design and maintain mechatronic systems. We are proud of the Mechatronics program, and believe that its strengths are built on: Great Faculty – Our faculty are dedicated to teaching. Many have extensive engineering, science, and industrial experience. Excellent Labs – Hands-on experience with up-to-date industrial equipment helps you to understand the concepts that you learn in lectures and gives you job-ready, practical skills. Check out our labs on the Lab Tour page. Fantastic Career Choices – We are proud of our graduates and the many interesting jobs that they do. The multidisciplinary training and education that you’ll receive prepares you for a leadership role in the design and creation of innovative mechatronics products for a variety of applications. After graduation, you might be designing and building automated equipment for the movie industry, medical devices, production equipment, or submarines.
