Pengenalan Kursus

Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering Technology with Honours (MECHA) programme is ETAC accredited and registered at MQA under Electronics and Automation specialization area. The duration of full-time study generally takes 4 years to complete. Students are required to complete 120 credit hours of courses that includes engineering technology core, humanities, technopreneur, capstone, final year project and industrial training. Graduate from MECHA can find their career path in mechatronics approach in production and manufacturing, holistic problem solving in a mixed discipline engineering technology problem, simulation and analysis of digital manufacturing and emerging technology in production planning and manufacturing automation.
