Mechatronics engineering
Mechatronics Engineering is the trade that combines methodologies, techniques and applications from Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Automatic Control and Computer Science, hence the prefix "Mecha"; stands for Mechanics involved engineering, and "tronics"; stands for the Electronics/Computer Science involved engineering: Mechatronics.
