MECH ENG 2101 - Mechatronics IM

To provide an introduction to the application of mechatronic engineering. To give framework of knowledge that allows students to develop an interdisciplinary understanding and integrated approach to practical and applied engineering problems. Small group practical sessions will be used to provide important hands-on experience with electro-pneumatic system and PLC based projects. The course emphasises how to use the philosophy of mechatronics to design and analyse commonly used electro-pneumatic actuators, solid mechanical and temperature sensors, programmable logic controllers, digital systems, and measurement systems. Student-centred learning method is used to encourage students to learn actively whenever and wherever you choose to.
