Bachelor of Engineering (Adv Manufacturing and Mechatronics) (Honours)

Are you ready for an exciting career that lets you design, build and implement smart mechatronic systems which can be deployed within a wide range of engineering companies?

In RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Advanced Manufacturing and Mechatronics) (Honours) degree, you’ll learn about mechatronics, robotics, advanced materials, automated systems, and the simulation and modelling of manufacturing processes.

As automation replaces people in various industry sectors, engineers with experience in robotics and mechatronics will be highly sought after.

This professionally accredited degree will prepare you to work in a wide range of industries and as a graduate, you'll demonstrate skills across mathematics, engineering, mechatronics, design and creativity. You'll also be able to communicate your ideas to others and continue to learn as a professional engineer.

Your studies will include areas such as electrical and electronic system design, machine intelligence and robotics, computer programming and advanced materials. The emphasis is placed on the need to view a manufacturing system as being made up of people, machines and information.

A feature of this degree is the access you'll have to state-of-the-art facilities, such as the Advanced Manufacturing Precinct which combines RMIT's expertise in technology and design innovation.

You'll have the opportunity to apply your learning in the real world through capstone projects, industry placements, and participation in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge – a humanitarian-focused subject offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.

As a graduate of this degree, you will be highly qualified to design and implement state-of-the-art manufacturing and automation systems.

Opportunities for advanced manufacturing and mechatronics engineers are as diverse as the manufacturing industry itself.

Areas of employment are broad and may include the automotive and aerospace industries, the food and beverage industry and engineering and management consultancies.

Upon graduation, you may take on roles including:

• Product design engineer
• Process engineer
• Engineering specialist
• Facilities manager
• Production manager
• Quality engineer
• Automation specialist.

RMIT graduates have gone on to have successful careers at a range of organisations including:

• ABB
• Festo
• Toyota
• Cadbury
• National Instruments
• SAGE
• Ford
• Bosch Australia.
