Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics Engineering to Master of Science in Manufacturing and Mechanical Systems (Accelerated)

RIT's BS in Mechatronics Engineering Technology prepares students to drive the design and development of smart products by integrating electrical and mechanical systems. Accelerated Bachelor/Master's Option: Earn two degrees in less time by pursuing your BS in mechatronics engineering technology and in manufacturing and mechanical systems integration.
Jobs at Industry Leading Companies: Recent graduates with a degree in mechatronics engineering technology are employed at Bausch & Lomb, BorgWarner, Boston Scientific, Lockheed Martin, SONY Electronics, and Tesla.
Airplanes are complex mechanical systems with thousands of embedded computers and electrical systems that coordinate and monitor everything from the flight control system, navigational system, and air speeds to interior lights, wing flaps, and communication systems.
Sorting and packaging systems on production lines combine manufacturing efficiencies with computer systems that can effectively scan, sort, and package products.
Smart doorbells integrate motion sensing, real-time video capture, facial recognition, and voice control, all controlled by an app on your phone.
Drones combine electrical, computer, and mechanical engineering with control systems and imaging technologies in order to take off and land, capture photos and videos, gather and communicate data, and accurately aim and launch projectiles.
These are just a sampling of the dynamic capabilities of mechatronic engineering. And students who earn a mechatronics engineering degree are at the forefront of developing and integrating the technologies that influence how we work, play, learn, and live.
Mechatronics engineering technology combines electrical, computer, and mechanical engineering along with systems integration and project management. It focuses on mechanics, electronics, robotics, automation, imaging and sensing technologies, and computing to design and develop smart products and smart manufacturing systems. Mechatronics engineering is the design and development of the entire system in mind, not just one component.

There is a growing need for mechatronic engineers who have a strong foundation in the key areas electrical engineering, computer engineering, mechanical engineering, programming, systems design, manufacturing processes, robotics, and automation that influence the design and development of products with the whole system in mind, not just one component.

A bachelor's degree in mechatronics engineering technology integrates these key areas into one program that prepares students for careers in designing and developing the products of the future. RIT's mechatronics engineering technology degree takes a systems approach, analyzing the whole system and breaking it down into subsystems and their individual components to prepare graduates for the innovative design solutions that will be required of them.

For all bachelor’s degree programs, a strong performance in a college preparatory program is expected. Generally, this includes 4 years of English, 3-4 years of mathematics, 2-3 years of science, and 3 years of social studies and/or history. Specific math and science requirements and other recommendations 3 years of math required; pre-calculus recommended. Submit an official high school transcript. TOFEL- 79 IELTS- 6.5
