Comments about MEng Mechatronics with Management - At the institution - Sheffield - South Yorkshire

• Objectives
  During this four year MEng course you will study devices which combine mechanical and electronic components such as camcorders, robots, sound and vibration control systems and DVD drives. This course aims to meet the increasing demand for management graduate skills. You will specialise in an underlying systems theme for the first three years, and then receive focused management teaching in year four. We use a wide variety of teaching and assessment methods to deliver a broad learning experience and equip you with transferable skills. There are also opportunities to study another language, and take part in group and individual projects.
