The two-year Master’s Programme in Mechatronics leads to the degree of Master of Science in Technology, M.Sc. (Tech.), which is 120 ECTS credits.
The programme includes core studies, advanced specialisation studies, elective studies and a master’s thesis.
The content of the programme includes electrical, hydraulic and hybrid power transmission systems – both theory and practical applications. The goal is to help you learn how to improve both energy and material efficiency by utilising mechatronic systems. Further, the programme deals with the environmental aspects and overall sustainability of machine systems.
You can choose business-, environment- or IoT-oriented courses for your elective studies. Consequently, the programme gives you a wider perspective on strategic industrial thinking. In addition, you can include an industry internship in your personal study plan.
Lectures and exercises take place both online on the Moodle platform and on campus. Contact teaching mainly takes place on the Lahti campus, but some laboratory tutorials are held on the Lappeenranta campus.
Most laboratories and other facilities of the Department of Mechanical Engineering are located in Lappeenranta, but some are also available in Lahti. Blended teaching makes this programme suitable for people with a full-time job.
Future Career Outcomes
As a graduate, envision a future where your mechatronic expertise positions you at the forefront of technological advancements, driving innovation and efficiency in diverse industries.
