-
1.00 Credits
An introduction to career opportunities in Mechatronics Engineering; familiarization with college and departmental policies, curriculum, and facilities.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of several skills necessary in Mechatronics Engineering, to include: lab orientation with simple machines and circuits; critical thinking concepts; an introduction to C++ programming and mathematics software such as MATLAB®; and writing formal lab reports. The basic concepts of Electrical Circuits and System Dynamics will be presented.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is a study of Digital Control theory and application. The first half of the course covers the basic theoretical methods and mathematical tools for analysis and design of digital control system. The second half covers the overview of the design process and complete implementation of the digital control system using Microcontrollers and Digital Signal Processors. Topics that will be included are: Basic mathematics of discrete systems, an overview of difference equations, discrete convolution, Z-transforms, discrete system transfer function, fundamentals of modern control systems design emphasizing techniques such as controllability, observability and pole placement. A brief discussion of the linear quadratic optimal design methodology also will be covered.
-
3.00 Credits
The technology of integrating automation equipment for use in manufacturing process is covered. Students design demonstrations and complete projects involving the interfacing of flexible automation devices Programming and sensory techniques, as well as identification systems are investigated. Data collection, quality management and control are included.
-
4.00 Credits
The design of mechanical and electrical devices and systems, and cost considerations are covered. The course focuses on reliability, safety, energy and environmental issues, ethics, patents, product liability, time value of money, return on investment, and breakeven analysis. The design project is a capstone for the Mechatronics Engineering program. Projects are assigned based on interest, equipment and software availability, and the specific background of the student. Projects require planning, proposal presentation, scheduling, engineering, implementation, and written and oral presentations of project results. Students are encouraged to "design and build" and utilize concepts learned from courses throughout the program.
-
