The Associate in Mechatronics combines technologies of MECHAnics and ElecTRONICS. An interdisciplinary field of study, it covers sought-after skills in electro-mechanical systems, machine operation, computing, automation, robotics and advanced manufacturing. Students learn by doing, starting in BCC’s state-of-the art manufacturing and engineering space and finishing with a hands-on, job-relevant practicum offered by BCC’s industry partners. Mechatronics bridges traditional machine operation and 21st century smart devices, positioning graduates well for many exciting and rewarding work opportunities.
