Education in mechatronics involves study and research in a wide variety of laboratories. Specialized laboratories for robotics, microprocessor systems, control systems, and sustainable energy are often utilized. CAD/CAM systems and multimedia computer equipment are also used in mechatronics education.

There are a few potential benefits to looking into a graduate pathway for students who know they want more than a simple bachelor’s degree. One example is that this choice may help the student specialize and prepare for advanced courses.
