Introduction

The field of electromechanical engineering and mechatronics reflects the integration of four areas in engineering: mechanical, electrical, electronics, and automation. Graduates of the Electromechanical Engineering Technician - Mechatronics program will have the skills and knowledge to enter the workforce in a wide variety of industrial environments and advanced manufacturing facilities and can be involved with the design, implementation, maintenance and repair of robotic equipment, automation systems, and new product designs. Please note: Students will receive an Ontario College Diploma in Electromechanical Engineering Technician – Mechatronics.

  • Graduates of this program may also ladder into a 3-year Bachelor of Engineering program, through Loyalist's articulation agreement with the Limerick Institute of Technology, or other related undergraduate programs.
  • Graduates of this program are prepared for placement in a variety of industrial-related apprenticeships.
