Engineering mechatronics

Mechatronics is a multidisciplinary field of engineering that includes a

combination of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering,
telecommunications engineering, control engineering and computer
engineering

Astechnologyadvances the subfields ofengineeringmultiply and adapt.

Mechatronics' aim is a design process that unifies these subfields. Originally,
mechatronics just included the combination of mechanics and electronics,
hence the word is a combination ofmechanics and electronics; however, as
technical systems have become more and more complex the word has been
broadened to include more technical areas.
