High-tech robotics, advanced electronics and clean manufacturing are just a few of the areas covered. Mechatronics combines traditional fields of mechanical engineering and electrical engineering, fused together with IT or computer science, control systems and mathematics. Careers in this field are high demand, high skill and high wage with a lot of advancement possible.
The Mechatronics program has expanded to give students two 1-year options:
Exploration of Mechatronics - a partially online, partially face-to-face program open to 10th-12th graders
Mechatronics - a traditional, full Tech Center program open to 11th and 12th graders only
Key Highlights
Work with intelligent machines that can respond to their environment in real time
