MECE 4320 Introduction to Mechatronics

This course will introduce students to the analysis, design and implementation of mechatronics systems. Mechatronics is an interdisciplinary engineering area that comprises the integration of mechanical engineering, electronics, control systems and computer science, which together contribute to design smart products and processes. Different topics in mechatronics, such as DC motors, stepper motors, H-bridges, PIC microcontrollers and others will be covered in class and complementary experiments will be performed in the laboratory.
