Mechatronics at Satakunta University of Applied Sciences SAMK is a Bachelor of Engineering degree focused on machine automation. It covers structures for devices, equipment and systems, and combines automation, robotics, smart operating devices, hardware-oriented programming, controlling systems and mechanical engineering. The programme also includes applied mathematics, natural sciences, communication and project management, along with professional studies in automation, robotics, construction design and mechanical engineering.
SAMK says the degree is taught in English in a multicultural group of students and in close cooperation with working life. It uses contact teaching and laboratories, where students experiment, plan and execute projects, and work in multidisciplinary teams. The degree is completed with elective studies, practical training and a Bachelor’s thesis.
SAMK says the programme prepares students to solve problems in complex industrial environments and to work with automation, robotics, construction design and mechanical engineering.
