McMaster University, Bachelor of Engineering and Biomedical Engineering - Mechatronics and Biomedical Engineering (B.Eng.BME. Co-op Optional), Duration

Mechatronics Engineering is a modern discipline that transcends the boundaries between Embedded Systems, Mechanical, Electrical, and Computer Engineering. Today's designers are faced with the task of combining elements of mechanics, electronics, embedded systems, and digital signal processing while coping with the miniaturization of components and the use of prefabricated parts.

The synthesis of different technologies is already included in modern precision engineering. Continuing developments in miniaturization and fabrication will provide further challenges for Mechatronics Engineers. The demands of current and future technologies require engineers that have interdisciplinary skills.

The breadth of education required by Mechatronics engineers will not only provide such skills in the short term but will enable them in the long term to effectively adapt to rapidly shifting technologies. At different Universities, Mechatronics Engineering is offered in different flavors - Mechanical, Electrical, or Embedded Systems.

We, at McMaster University, have designed an innovative world-class Mechatronics program that offers a balance of Mechanical, Electrical, and Software content with a focus on Embedded Systems Design.

The program accepted the initial class of second-year students in September 2006. Our Mechatronics program gives students a solid foundation in Mechanical, Software, and Electrical Engineering and then exposes students to a suite of innovative Mechatronics specific lab-based courses for a hands-on experience that provides significant advantages in today's job market.
