Learning outcome

Knowledge:
- The learning objective is to provide candidates with a sound understanding of selected issues within the field of Mechatronics.
- They will have knowledge of complex systems of mechanical, hydraulic and electrical elements and the interaction between such systems.
-Robots and cranes will be focused in the course.    

Skills:
- Theoretical understanding and skills designing of mechatronics systems with electronics and software.
- Apply the theory and models learned in the course to real mechatronics systems.
- Gain experience in working with physical sensors, actuators and programming.

General competence:
The student is able to take the first step towards creating useful mechatronics systems for non-industrial applications, and see the opportunities and benefits of mechatronics in industrial production and products.
