Mechatronics Education in Australia and NZ

Mechatronic engineering is available in degree courses at 23 universities in Australia and New Zealand.

The courses vary considerably, though all have been accredited by Engineers Australia (for Australia) and Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand (for New Zealand).

The aim of this web site is to present comparative information based on course details supplied in 2007. The comparison will be updated from time to time as new information becomes available.
