Lakehead to launch Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering program

Lakehead University has announced that its Faculty of Engineering will be offering a Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering (BEng). The Mechatronics Engineering degree will have sustainability and co-op at its core and will focus on preparing students to design intelligent machines that will support the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. During their studies, students will also learn about business, law, and public safety. “The technological revolution we are experiencing is increasingly merging traditional disciplines of engineering, and new ones are emerging, including Mechatronics Engineering,” said Lakeland Dean of Engineering Janusz Kozinski. The program will be offered at Lakehead’s Thunder Bay campus and is scheduled to kick off in Fall 2023.
