1 Chapter 9 The prgramme specific part f the curriculum fr: Diplmingeniør i Mekatrnik Bachelr f Engineering in Mechatrnics Curriculum 2016, Versin 1.0 Applicable t students admitted September 2016 nwards The curriculum is divided int general prvisins (Chapters 1-8), a prgramme specific part (Chapter 9) and the mdule descriptins fr the subjects studied fr each prgramme. Students shuld familiarise themselves with all three parts in rder t acquire a full verview f the rules that apply thrughut the study prgramme.

2 1 Jb Prfile An engineer with a Bachelr f Engineering degree in Mechatrnics has brad knwledge f mechanics, electrnics and sftware. Furthermre, the students have the pssibility f specializing thrugh the chice f prfiles in Mechanical engineering, Electrnics engineering r Embedded systems engineering. The study prgramme fcuses n prduct develpment. The mechatrnics engineer will typically find emplyment in cmpanies which develp and sell mechatrnic prducts. With brad general knwledge and special key cmpetences the mechatrnic engineer can ccupy many different psitins in the cmpany. Typical jb prfiles include: Research and Develpment Engineering Prject Management Custmer cnsultancy Prject Sales Training Typically, mechatrnics engineers will begin their careers as develpment engineers. Within a few years, they will have the pprtunity t cmbine technical wrk with management functins. Engineers are ften invlved in crss-rganizatinal develpment prcesses, as well as being invlved in partnerships with external cmpanies, bth natinally and internatinally. Alternatively, they may develp int specialists in particular technlgies, r perhaps start their wn business. The Bachelr f Engineering degree prvides an immediate pprtunity t start a prfessinal career in an engineering cmpany r t cntinue studying n an MSc prgramme. 2
