Program Description

Program Description

Full Description

The Bachelor of Science degree in Mechatronics Engineering successfully prepares graduates with knowledge across engineering disciplines for professional careers in mechatronics, controls, robotics, automation and other engineering fields that provide solutions to technical challenges and address societal needs. The program integrates mechanical, electrical, computer and controls engineering to understand automated machinery, specifically, how to design it and make it work. Mechatronics engineering revolves around the design, construction and operation of automated systems, robots and intelligent products, which result from the integration of software and hardware.

Using automated systems is becoming more popular for operating equipment or machinery on manufacturing lines, boilers and aircraft to reduce labor costs; increase precision and accuracy; and provide quality and safety for workers. Mechatronic devices can be found in agriculture, hospitals, buildings, homes, automobiles, manufacturing plants, the toy and entertainment industry and aids for the elderly and disabled.

Applicants to this program should understand that this is a math-intensive program.

Students may apply early to the and double count 9 credit hours of graduate courses toward both degree programs. See the in the University Catalog for more information.

Admissions for Mechatronics Engineering - B.S.

Admissions

Admission Requirements

The university affirmatively strives to provide educational opportunities and access to students with varied backgrounds, those with special talents and adult students who graduated from high school three or more years ago.

Admission to the Mechatronics Engineering major is selective. Applicants should understand that this is a math-intensive program, and the roadmap assumes students start with MATH 12002 their first semester. Students admitted to the program are expected to demonstrate prerequisite knowledge on a math placement assessment (the ALEKS math assessment) or via other means (e.g., , , , ) prior to registering for their first semester. Students who do not place into MATH 12002 will likely take longer than eight semesters to complete the program.

New Students: Admission into this major requires:

  • Minimum 3.0 high school GPA
  • Clear demonstration of an ability to be placed directly into MATH 12002 (or its equivalent); this will occur if the student is currently taking or has taken a calculus, pre-calculus or trigonometry course with a minimum C grade (starting with the fall 2026 admission term, a minimum C grade in all math courses listed on the high school transcript (e.g., trigonometry, algebra, geometry) is required)

Students who do not meet the above requirements will be admitted to the , provided they meet the minimum admission requirements.

Current Students: Students accepted into other 小黄片视频 programs may request to change their major to Mechatronics Engineering once they meet the following criteria:

  • Minimum 3.000 overall 小黄片视频 GPA (starting with the fall 2026 admission term, minimum 12 credit hours completed at 小黄片视频 with a minimum 3.000 overall 小黄片视频 GPA is required)
  • Minimum C grade in both MATH 12002 and PHY 23101 (starting with the fall 2026 admission term, minimum B grade in MATH 11022 OR minimum C grade in MATH 12002 is required)

Transfer Students: Admission into this major requires:

  • Minimum 12 credit hours of college-level coursework
  • Minimum 3.000 overall GPA
  • Minimum C grade in both MATH 12002 and PHY 23101 (or their equivalents)(starting with the fall 2026 admission term, minimum B grade in MATH 11022 OR minimum C grade in MATH 12002 or their equivalents is required)

Transfer students who have completed fewer than 12 credit hours of college-level coursework will be evaluated on both collegiate and high school records and must submit a final high school transcript.

International Students: All international students must provide proof of proficiency of the English language (unless they meet specific exceptions) through the submission of an English language proficiency test score or by completing English language classes at 小黄片视频’s English as a Second Language Center before entering their program. For more information, visit the admissions website for international students.
