M.E in Mechatronic Engineering

• INTRODUCTION
  

  Mechatronics is the synergistic integration of Mechanical, Electronic, Control and Computer Engineering. Mechatronic Engineering is one of the rapidly growing fields of Engineering. The demand for mechatronic products and systems, and hence qualified Mechatronic engineers, is ever increasing worldwide. The increased automation and control in various setups is supported by smart sensors, actuators, microprocessors, microcontrollers and computer aided design tools. The engineers involved with those systems must possess thorough understanding of various elements of the system. The research and development activities in the domain of Mechatronics are also increasing due to introduction of new sensors, actuators and control systems.

  Modern industrial systems have changed from pure mechanical or electromechanical to fully automatic and computerized ones. Hence, knowledge spanning over various disciplines is required for proper understanding and working in those scenarios. Therefore, the need for education in Mechatronics is growing since many products and systems are integrated of mechanical and electronic components. Examples include, but are not limited to, the manufacturing industry, automotive systems, consumer appliances and robots. The syllabus of Master of Engineering in Mechatronics program has been carefully designed by keeping interdisciplinary nature of this program in mind. The M.E. Mechatronics program comprises of a mix of theoretical and experimental work coupled with research. Experimental facilities will be available to students through following laboratories:

  1. Mechatronics Lab.
  2. Computer Lab.
  3. Instrumentation and Control Lab.
  4. Top Quality Centralized Instrumentation Centre
  5. Computer Image Processing lab.
  6. Engineering Mechanics Lab.

  The University has established Mechatronics laboratory which is equipped with core i5 desktop PCs and state-of-the-art hardware and software to carry out practical work and research. The lab. Has been designated as National Instruments LabVIEW Academy as well. Students will have a choice to take Certified LabVIEW Associate Developer (CLAD) examination during their study. The international certification will raise job prospects of the graduates.

  AIMS AND OBJECTIVES

  The aim of the program is to prepare students to design and develop efficient and intelligent mechatronic systems and products. The students will be equipped with theoretical and practical knowledge spanning over multiple disciplines to design and develop mechatronic products and systems for real life applications.

  The objectives of this program are laid down as under:
  1. To equip students with the knowledge spanned over multiple disciplines for the design and development of mechatronic systems
  2. To impart knowledge of various control systems
  3. To implement concept based teaching
  4. To reinforce theoretical concepts with the laboratory based hands on experiments
  5. To prepare students to innovate and develop intelligent mechatronic applications
  6. To prepare students for the research and development in the area of mechatronics
  7. To develop critical thinking skills through project based learning

  EXPECTED OUTCOMES
