RATIONALE- Mechatronics is an exciting interdisciplinary field of engineering based on

Mechanical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Controls Engineering
& Computer Engineering, which deals with advanced hybrid systems,
Electro-Pnumatic systems, Electro-Hydraulic systems, Softerwares,
Microprocessors, Programmable Times to create useful products & to
improve productivity.
OBJECTIVEIt develops understanding of the study of automat from an engineering
perspective & serves the purpose of controlling the advanced hybrid
system. This helps to understand mechatronics system in industries
business & home automation.
