Mechatronics and Automation Engineering

The Mechatronics and Automation Engineering program integrates three key engineering disciplines: mechanical engineering, electronics engineering, and automation engineering, besides, computer science and information technology enabling students to design, analyze, build, and control machinery, processes, and automated production systems efficiently. Graduates are well-suited to collaborate with scientists from other fields and meet the demand for highly skilled professionals, driving the full implementation of Industry 5.0 (Human-Robot Co-working).

Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)

The objectives of the Mechatronics and Automation Engineering program are to produce graduates who:

PEO1: Graduates apply and integrate multidisciplinary mechatronics and automation engineering skills to solve complex engineering problems that require critical thinking and professional project planning and management.

PEO2: Graduates pursues continuous self-improvement for professional advancement through systematic self-study and research.

PEO3: Graduates apply skills in communication, teamwork and leadership, to perform private and public services ethically and professionally.
