Mechatronics - Overview

Mechatronics is a multi-disciplinary domain lying at the intersection of Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, and Computer Science Engineering. The idea behind this domain derives from the current industrial needs and challenges which require a multifaceted knowledgeable workforce to deal and work under future requirements. An ideal Mechatronics Graduate is be expected to approach the problem with various angles and arrive at an innovative solution which has equitable share of all Engineering domains.

 

The department offers a dual degree program that allows students to complete two undergraduate degrees in four years. Students begin by enrolling in and successfully completing the first two years of the Bachelor of Technology (BTech) program in the Mechatronics stream at the Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT). Following this, they transfer to Deakin University to complete the remaining two years of the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) program. Upon successful completion of the program, students graduate with two globally recognized degrees from two leading universities, MIT and Deakin University, enhancing their academic credentials and career prospects.

Program accredited by National Board of Accreditation (NBA) MHRD for 6 years starting from 2019-2020 academic year.

 

Programme Educational Objectives (PEO)

  • PEO1- Are expected to apply analytical skills and modelling methodologies to recognize, analyse, synthesize and implement operational solutions to engineering problems, product design and development, and manufacturing.
  • PEO2- Will be able to work in national and international companies as engineers who can contribute to research and development and solve technical problems by taking an initiative to develop and execute projects and collaborate with others in a team.
  • PEO3- Shall be capable of pursuing higher education in globally reputed universities by conducting original research in related disciplines or interdisciplinary topics, ultimately contributing to the scientific community with novel research findings.
  • PEO4- Are envisioned to become technology leaders by starting companies based on social demands and national needs.
  • PEO5- Shall develop flexibility to unlearn and relearn by being in pursuit of research and development, evolving technologies and changing societal needs thus keeping themselves professionally relevant.

 

Programme Outcome (PO)

The POs are exemplars of the attributes expected of a graduate of an accredited programme.

  • PO1- Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
  • PO2- Identify, formulate, research literature, and analyse complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.
  • PO3- Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
  • PO4- Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.
  • PO5- Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modelling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
  • PO6- Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal, and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.
  • PO7- Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.
  • PO8- Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.
  • PO9- Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.
  • PO10- Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
  • PO11- Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.
  • PO12- Recognize the need for and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

 

Programme Specific Outcomes (PSO)
