Mechatronics AAS
Mechatronics is a multifaceted field that utilizes many areas of mechanics including electronics, automation,computers, hydraulics, programmable logic controllers,electrical systems, and mechanical systems. The Mechatronics program is designed to prepare students for employment as entry-level technicians, and emphasizes extensive practical experience in both theory and laboratory settings using mock-up equipment and assemblies similar to those found in industry. Instruction includes theory, troubleshooting, and hands-on application in mechatronic concepts and principles, programmable logic controllers, pneumatics, AC and DC electical systems, and motor controls.
