Mechanical and electronic components are increasingly being integrated into mechatronic systems, especially in automation technology and automotive engineering. Mechatronics is an interdisciplinary subject combining electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and computer science.
Whether intelligent industrial robots, sustainable production facilities, modern camera systems, future-oriented medical technology, autonomous robot systems, or vehicle technology - these systems are only possible through the harmonious interaction of sensors, actuators, and computer technology.
The Bachelor in Mechatronics will teach you all the necessary knowledge to develop creative and future-oriented technical solutions and make a lasting contribution to society.
