Study content

Objectives

• computer aided designing and engineering analysing of mechanic systems and structures in mechatronic systems;
• studying the principles of automation systems and of artificial intelligence systems;
• understanding and designing electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic actioning systems in mechatronic systems;
• studying, understanding and designing automation systems based on programmable controllers and microcontrollers;
• integrating knowledge from the mechanic, electric, electronic, automation and automatic levelling fields, in order to make mechatronic products.

Professional competences

• applying the fundamental general technical and expert knowledge in order to solve technical problems specific to the field of Mechatronics and Robotics;
• developing and using schemes, function structure diagrams, graphic representation of technical documentation specific to the field of Mechatronics and Robotics;
• creating local automation applications in mechatronics and robotics, using partial typified and non-typified components and partial assemblies, as well as CAD resources;
• aided designing, creating and providing maintenance for mechatronic systems by integrating component subsystems (mechanic, electronic, optical, software etc.).

Development opportunities

The strong development of the industrial area of Sibiu, and of those adjacent to it, created the premises for necessity and opportunity to prepare specialists in the mechatronic field.
The multitude of economic agents, such as those in the production of mechatronic components in the automotive industry, offers professional development opportunities for the graduates of this study programme. 
The graduates of the “Mechatronics” specialisation can attend the courses of all the master programmes provided by the Faculty of Engineering.
