Mechatronics Engineering
Our Mechatronics Engineering degree was born out of a need in industry for engineers who could cover a greater understanding of the application of engineering in different areas. We have four fundamental pillars in the career:
- Mechanics
- Electronics
- Programming
- Control
This enhances the capacity of our engineers with decision-making and problem-solving skills through creative and innovative ideas. Also, by studying at Universidad Panamericana our students obtain leadership tools, critical, analytical and systematic thinking, excelling in both national and international multidisciplinary contexts. Our ethical and human vision, our engineers make decisions that have a positive impact on society.
In Mechatronics Engineering, we have the following advantages:
- 90% of our engineers finish their studies working in an international company or starting their own business.
- Our teaching staff is made up of specialists with PhDs in our four pillars
- From the first semester of the course, our engineers participate in laboratories in order to balance theory and practice.
- Our students can choose four extracurricular projects, participating in international competitions in the following areas:
- Robotics
- Automotive
- Aeronautics
