Primary Major Options
Why a Co-Major?
Having a mechatronics systems automation specialization in addition to a primary engineering field provides depth and differentiation to your technical qualifications, providing a competitive advantage for post-graduate employment or graduate school.
Declaring the Co-Major
Students can apply to the mechatronics systems automation co-major on the admission application. Because co-majors must be paired with a primary major, students who apply to mechatronics systems automation will be placed in the Discover Engineering program as their primary major. Admitted students can change their primary major by contacting the Office of Recruitment and Admission, or enrolled students can meet with their advisor to declare either electronic engineering technology, mechanical engineering or mechanical engineering technology as their primary major.
