Associate Degree in Mechatronics
Mechatronics is the multidisciplinary field of engineering with synergetic combination of Mechanical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering and system design engineering. The Modern industries and service sectors require professionals with multi-disciplinary technical expertise as the machines and automation involve all above engineering aspects.
Mechatronics can be defined as “A synergetic integration of mechanics, electronics, control theory and computer science within product design and manufacturing, in order to improve and develop its functionality. The “Mechatronics” word was created by Mr. Tetsuro Mori, who was an engineer of Yaskwa Electrical Corporation, Japan.
Mechatronics takes full advantage of microelectronics and computer science to remove mechanical component while improving its functional performance and accuracy to the peak level. Mechatronics cutting technological boundaries existing in industries currently and strengthening with the new fusion of all technology in the areas of aerospace, food processing, aviation, robotics, communication, transportation, medicine, smart farming, pharmaceutical, medical instrumentation, automation in process plants and discrete manufacturing etc.
Program Overview
The department of Mechatronics at TLSU offers a 2-Year Associate degree and a 3-Year Bachelor degree program in Mechatronics. The course aims to produce students who can design and develop smart machines and use their multidisciplinary skills to meet growing demands of any industry.

Students learn the fundamental principles of mechanical, electrical, software, instrumentation and controls engineering and gain hands-on experience at our specially prepared laboratories and workshops.
Why Choose Mechatronics ?
In this fast growing global world, the products are bee designed with modern mechanical systems which are controlled by software and embedded electronics to create miniatures of the products. Mechatronics discipline provides set of skills which allows graduates to integrate mechanical system, electronics, electrical, computer science and control system to design and develop the future technology and thereby making him multi skilled.

Eligibility
- The applicants who have passed the higher secondary examination 10th + 2 or its equivalent course (HSC/Pre-University course) are eligible to apply for the Associate Degree and Degree Programs.
- The applicants who have passed 10th standard + 2 years of ITI course are eligible to apply for the Associate Degree and Degree Programs.
- The applicants who expecting their final semester/year result of 10 + 2 or its equivalent course (HSC/Pre-University/10+2 yeas of ITI) are also eligible to apply.
Teaching Methodology
TeamLease Skills University (TLSU) offers learner oriented education. The blended learning mode involves combination of face-to-face teaching, web-mediated instruction, and hands on work for practical experience and on job training for exposer to workplace practice. In addition to this Industrial visit, seminar, conference, project work and virtual simulation increase interaction between faculty and students.
Practical Orientation
The curriculum is designed to get relevant jobs as per industry’s requirement. To explore practical knowledge, the learners are facilitated with On-Job-Training, Industrial visits besides hybrid mode of teaching. Virtual simulation, analysis and model making enable students to think beyond the boundaries and play multidisciplinary role in industries.
OJT
To acquire hands on experience, On Job Training (OJT) is introduced in the 4th semester as a part of curriculum. During 4 to 6 months of OJT students get trained by industrial experts on workplace practice, behaviour, technology and systems; to test their theoretical concept to gain job relevant skills and enhanced employability.
Career Prospects
Mechatronics graduates will have an added advantage of necessary skills to integrate mechanical, IT, electrical, electronics and control systems and to meet increasing Industrial demand for interdisciplinary graduates. TLSU provides hands on practical experience and skills necessary for a student to excel and stay in this competitive world.
