Mechatronics
In the Master’s Programme in Mechatronics, you will learn how to apply artificial intelligence to control systems of machines and processes, including maintenance, services and programming. You will learn about digital twins and autonomous machine systems and the development and usability of user interfaces.
The core of the Master’s Programme in Mechatronics consists of the theory and practice of mechatronic systems, basics of robotics, programming and control systems, digitalisation and simulation.
The programme includes core studies, advanced specialisation studies, elective studies and a master’s thesis.
The content of the programme includes electrical, hydraulic and hybrid power transmission systems – both theory and practical applications. The goal is to help you learn how to improve both energy and material efficiency by utilising mechatronic systems. Further, the programme deals with the environmental aspects and overall sustainability of machine systems.
- ECTS transcript – If you are still completing your Bachelor’s degree, upload an ECTS transcript showing the subjects you have studied, your grades, and the number of credits awarded. Your Bachelor’s diploma must be uploaded later, as soon as you receive it.
- Bachelor’s diploma – If you have already graduated, upload your Bachelor’s diploma. A separate ECTS transcript is not required.
Note: Your Bachelor’s degree must be in the same or a related field as the Master’s programme you are applying for. The university will check whether you have completed enough relevant subjects and ECTS credits.
