DEPARTMENT OF MECHATRONICS
ENGINEERING
Mechatronics is the synergistic combination of precision mechanical engineering, electronic control and systems thinking in
the design of products and manufacturing processes. To meet the quality and productivity demands, industries are compelled
to use sophisticated electromechanical systems. Mechatronics Engineering caters the national needs of industries in the field
of Robotics, Automated Manufacturing Equipment, Automobiles, Security Systems, Treatment Plants and Medical Equipments,
etc.
