Evolving primarily from the field of mechanical engineering, mechatronics involves mechanics, electronics, controls, and computer science.

This rapidly developing interdisciplinary field of engineering deals with the design of products whose function relies on the synergistic integration of mechanical, electrical, and electronic components connected by a control architecture.

The course, ENGR-4367, culminates with each group designing, constructing, and testing a unique mechatronic system. These reports document that work.
