Bachelor of Engineering in Mechatronic Engineering (Honours)- Computer Systems (Mechatronic)

The University of Sydney

Our Computer Systems specialisation is concerned with the design of hardware and software to create efficient computing platforms.It is tailored to provide you with the necessary knowledge of how computer hardware works, the interface between hardware and software, and equip you with the skills needed to design bespoke computing platforms that are optimised for specific applications. As the quest for better solutions to computing problems transcends all disciplines of science and engineering, the knowledge gained would be applicable to any major.Many of the advances in diverse specialisations such as high-energy physics, machine learning, drug design, linguistics and archaeology have only become possible due to improvements in computing.The Bachelor of Engineering Honours (Mechatronic Engineering) is an undergraduate coursework program that combines mechanical, electronic and software engineering to enable you to create computer-controlled machines and consumer products. Through practical learning and industry experiences, you will be ready to transform the use of machines across a range of innovative and emerging industries.This course is accredited by Engineers Australia and other major professional engineering institutions. You will complete degree foundational core units in mathematics and computing, along with a suite of multidisciplinary project units.You will also complete stream core and specialist elective units in mechanical engineering, and can choose to complete an optional specialisation. Additionally, you will complete elective units as needed to make up the requirements of the course from either the Engineering disciplinary pool or the shared pool.In your final year, you will complete an honours thesis in mechanical engineering. Throughout your degree, you will undertake professional engagement activities as part of the Professional Engagement Program, including engineering work experience in the final year.
