About the Department

The Mechatronics Engineering is an interdisciplinary engineering field. It refers to a synergistic integration of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, electronics, and information technology. Mechatronics is essential in the design of intelligent products and/or industrial control systems. The Mechatronics Engineering Department at the Faculty of Engineering, Heliopolis University offers Mechatronics Engineering academic program for the bachelor’s degree. The program provides students with a systematic fusion of rich knowledge and practical skills that enables them to develop, implement, or maintain smart systems.  The study program Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics Engineering consists of 10 semesters where the students earn at least 170 credit hours of coursework.

The curriculum is designed to provide the students with the knowledge and hands-on experience of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, sensors, actuators, drives, PLC and control systems, mechatronic systems, and the appropriate software tools to develop a system for performing specified tasks.

Graduates can choose from a wide variety of industries for job choices. They are engaged in the advancement of industries including manufacturing, robotics, automotive, aeronautical and building services industries, or a variety of similar areas as well as R&D applications.

The graduates pursue further studies in renowned institutions of the world, in mechatronics, or other fields related to the discipline.
