Minor in Mechatronics - Khalifa University

Learning Outcomes

Ability to design, implement, and evaluate mechatronics solutions to meet a given set of engineering and manufacturing requirements.
Ability to use techniques, skills, and tools necessary for mechatronics-based solutions.
Ability to synthesize and integrate mechatronics based solutions for optimum implementation.

The Minor in Mechatronics consists of 21 credit hours distributed as follows: 6 credits of Background courses; 12 credits of Core courses; 3 credits of a Mechatronics Elective course.

Some courses can be double-counted as a requirement for the Major of the student. However, a minimum of 12 credits additional to the Major is required for the Minor program.
