Our Target

Upon completion of the programme, you will be able to integrate the diverse disciplines of mechanical, electrical and computer engineering. You will also be able to design and develop high value-added mechatronic products (including laser printers, home appliances, toys, automation systems and machines) and implement the engineering aspects related to the utilization, operation and maintenance of manufacturing systems and equipment.

Start Your Career Here

Upon graduation, you will find jobs in a wide range of fields involving the management of product design and development and the provision and maintenance of high-tech products and services in mechanical, electronic and computer related fields. You will find work as plant engineer/manager, product designer/manager, mechatronic engineer, service engineer/manager, development engineer, sales engineer or, with further training, take up positions such as quality engineer, sales engineer or testing engineer.

How Do You Get In

To be eligible for admission, you must satisfy the General Entrance Requirements and the following programme specific entrance requirements:

A-Level Entry
  • E or above in one of the following AL subjects: Applied Mathematics, Pure Mathematics, Chemistry, Engineering Science, Physics
or
  • E or above in two of the following AS subjects: Applied Mathematics, Mathematics and Statistics, Chemistry, Design and Technology, Electronics, Physics
Alternative Entry

Alternatively, you will be considered as meeting the programme entrance requirements if you hold a higher diploma or associate degree in a relevant engineering discipline.

What You Will Be Studying

Entry level courses emphasize fundamental principles and concepts, and cover a broad spectrum of basic and analytical design skills. The course topics include engineering materials and manufacturing processes; engineering analysis and design; mathematics; electronics and mechanical engineering; computer programming and computer-aided engineering drawing.

Intermediate level courses are more advanced and provide the essential background for specialization. The courses include mechanical design; electronics for industrial applications; microprocessor programming and applications; and control principles.

Advanced level courses include motion control design, group design-project and technical elective courses belonging to  the subject areas of (i) mechanics; (ii) electronics, controls and computers; and (iii) systems and management.
