Summary
In this first year foundation course, students are introduced to the field of Mechatronic and Robotic Engineering and are provided with the chance to cultivate and showcase their proficiency in the fundamental knowledge and skills essential for functioning as a Mechatronic and Robotic Engineering Associate.The course learning outcomes allow you … For more content click the Read More button below.
The course is delivered through a series of on-demand, active learning modules. Each module is assessed separately and needs to be successfully completed to complete the course. Your learning is supported through our Learning Communities that provide you with opportunities for synchronous and asynchronous engagement through workshops and discussion forums.
This course has listed co-requisites. The intention is that students complete these courses as pre-requisites (i.e. study them in an earlier trimester) to be fully prepared for this course. However, these courses are available as co-requisites where a student is repeating the pre-requisite course and is confident that they can successfully proceed with this course at the same time.
SynopsisThis course provides you with an opportunity to develop and demonstrate mastery at a foundation level of the underpinning knowledge and skills required to operate as a Mechatronic and Robotic Engineering Associate. The areas covered by this course include fundamental principles of statics, and the fundamentals of building mechatronic systems.
