Overview

The Mechatronic Engineering graduate from California State University Chico is prepared to design "intelligent" machines such as self-driving cars, automated warehouse systems, self-assembling machines and robots.

Mechatronic Engineering Program Mission

The mechatronic engineering program has the primary mission of providing students a high-quality undergraduate engineering education with:

A curriculum that is firmly grounded in engineering fundamentals.
A faculty that provides superior teaching and mentoring both in and out of the classroom.
A faculty whose focus is undergraduate education.
Class sizes that encourage student participation.
Project experiences that build on fundamentals and develop team skills.
Facilities and equipment that are readily accessible.
An environment that is conducive to learning and encourages students from different genders and backgrounds.

Mechatronic Engineering Student Outcomes

Student outcomes are narrower statements that describe what students are expected to know and be able to do by the time of graduation. Mechatronic Engineering Program graduates must demonstrate the following:

An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.

An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.

An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.

An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.

An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.

An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.

An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.

Mechatronic engineers are in high demand as the number of "intelligent" products on the market increases. The need for graduates who can design products with embedded control is growing rapidly as microprocessors are integral to many devices and products.
