      Nice! What a cool comment. I save ones like this. The thing to know about mechatronics engineering is that there are only 28 programs in the USA. So you will probably have to choose EE or ME and then focus in MTREs for your concentration. The biggest thing you can start doing for engineering career is learn to code. The more momentum you have there, the better. And if you can do electrical engineering, you can do anything you want within mechatronics / robotics.

      Here are the best languages for mechatronics engineers.
      There is no simple answer to this. if you ask "What's the best programming language for mechatronics/robotics?" to a whole roomful of professionals will give different answers. I find most mechatronics engineering enthusiasts are striving for a career in robotics, so this reply pertains to that.
      Electronic engineers will give a different answer from industrial robotic technicians. Computer vision programmers will give a different answer from cognitive roboticists.
      In the end, the answer which most intelligent people agree on is "it depends."
      This is the most realistic answer. It depends on what type of application you want to develop. It depends on what system you are using. It depends on your personal preferences.
      But, it is also a pretty useless answer for the new roboticist who is trying to decide which language to learn first. You're probably reading this article because you want to start programming robots and don't know which language to choose.
      My advice is not to ask which programming language is the "best". A better question to ask is: Which programming language should I start learning now?
      You will still get differing opinions, but a lot of roboticists can agree on the key languages.
      The most important thing for career roboticists is to develop "The Programming Mindset" rather than to be proficient in one specific language.
      In many ways, it doesn't really matter which programming language you learn first. Each language that you learn develops your proficiency with the programming mindset and makes it easier to learn any new language whenever it's required. In this case, learn whichever language makes the most sense for your next project.
      It's also worth pointing out that some widely popular languages are not common in robotics. For example, Javascript and PHP are used extensively in web development but hardly at all in robotics. Here are my top suggestions:
      C/C++, which are the top languages in robotics.
      Python
      Java
      C#/.NET
      Matlab

      @@jrmx2s.787 yup that’s right. Unfortunately it’s true.
      There are only 28 ABET mechatronics engineering programs in the world and just 3 in the USA. So oftentimes you have to choose EE or ME or CPE and do a degree concentration in mechatronics, which is a great path. Some universities have a formal certification program within EE/ME/CPE, or you may have to build it yourself. You would do that by for example, majoring in EE and taking more electronics courses and less about power or telecommunications. You would take robotics electives, signals and controls, and circuits courses, etc. Your CS related courses should revolve around mechatronics rather than something else, and so on.
      Computer Engineering is often a subset of Electrical Engineering. But sometimes engineers struggle to choose between ME vs EE/CPE. This video will help you decide, “Mechanical VS Electrical Engineering” ua-cam.com/video/6PJ-Yw5qVsc/v-deo.html

      As for automotive, many MEs want to do this as it’s technically a part of mechanical engineering - vehicle engineering. Many automotive engineers work with and design, test, analyze and redesign the physical components in the automotive industry.
      If you like coding and electronics, do EE. If you are 100% into physical parts design, so ME. You can work almost the same career in the same sectors but one career vs the other will result in a different type of role for you.
      If you are on the fence, EE is better to me. More options. Cooler potential. More money. More coding pathways. EE is the best engineering today.

      I'm actually studying mechatronics at Curtin University In Australia. Its quite new but became one of the most popular courses quite quickly.
      I chose the degree because i wanted to get into automation. I've had a chat with the person that interviews graduate engineers for grad positions at a company i want to work at. From that i've decided i'm going to try aim myself towards process controls. Perhaps doing a masters in subsea engineering (offshort mining is huge in my state). This is of course all up in the air till i actually get a few years in the industry.
      If you are looking for video ideas i've also never seen video about my situation. I'm a mature aged student, i didn't take math or physics in highschool and decided to change my career when i was 23. I've met heaps of people in similar positions, but most videos are aimed at the highschool student entering university. Its led to a few surprising differences though. For example the interviewer i spoke to said for mature ages grads who have worked in the past joining university clubs is almost unrequired. they don't expect adults with mortgages, families and work commitments to commit to that. Your previous work experience makes up for it. concentrate instead of networking with industry (As you are closer in age to young working engineers) and building a portfolio of personal projects.

I'd suggest you must think this through or u can always do masters in Mechatronics after getting a undergrad degree in a core subject like Electronics and electrical, mechanical, or computer science.

      Hey thanks for the comment. Great plan. Here's the thing with a BS in mechatronics.
      You can't really get one. There are actually just 3 ABET programs in the USA right now. So oftentimes you have to choose EE or ME or CPE and do a degree concentration in mechatronics, which is a great path. Some universities have a formal certification program within EE/ME/CPE, or you may have to build it yourself. You would do that by for example, majoring in EE and taking more electronics courses and less about power or telecommunications. You would take robotics electives, signals and controls, and circuits courses, etc. Your CS related courses should revolve around mechatronics rather than something else, and so on.
      Computer Engineering is often a subset of Electrical Engineering. But sometimes engineers struggle to choose between ME vs EE. This video will help you decide, “Mechanical VS Electrical Engineering” ua-cam.com/video/6PJ-Yw5qVsc/v-deo.html

      Ya basically that’s one ways but there are many ways to get there. EE or mechanical or computer or sim purer science, aerospace etc can all get you there.
      Yes there are still less mechatronics programs than needed. Mechatronics engineering can be done within your existing engineering major as a sort of “customize your own emphasis” type of degree. First, understand that mechatronics is basically a combination of Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering with some computer programming included (plenty of that in EE). So watch this video and choose one, “Mechanical VS Electrical Engineering” ua-cam.com/video/6PJ-Yw5qVsc/v-deo.html.
      Then, take tech elective courses and build relationships and do research in the direction of the other. I think EE has a stronger future than ME, so if you really like math and if you can program well, then EE is the way. Over time there will be more actual degrees for mechatronics, but for now you basically have to build it yourself. Does that make sense? Thanks!

Im going for smart production systems, be it IIoT or information systems to increase/smoothen/automate workflow in manufacturing, testing and quality control etc. Things like custom MOM systems, digital twin, automated final test analysis...
    As an "pure" ME you might become a professional for brakes. Then brakes you do. I feel in such fields as mechatronics you always find a new challenge.

      Here is what you should know too. There are only 28 ABET mechatronics engineering programs in the world and just 3 in the USA, so oftentimes you have to choose EE or ME or CPE and do a degree concentration in mechatronics, which is a great path.

    • @JakeVoorhees
      @JakeVoorhees  3 роки тому

      Hey thanks for the comment. Cool interest in Falcon EXO-7 jet pack technology. I’m actually not sure how robotic or Mechatronic that system is? Maybe you can tell me more about the sci-fi tech and whether it is?
      Either way, I think the care paths would be similar, and here is more info on that.
      I think mechatronics is the future. It is the intersection of mechanical and electrical engineering, so you can lean into either the physical design side i.e. mechanics, or the electrical engineering aspects which would include the circuitry, signals and controls, power, automation, and programming aspects. I think a mechatronics engineer who leans into the electrical engineering side of things is VERY well suited for the future. Here are some videos that you may be interested in:
      .
      There are only 28 ABET mechatronics engineering programs in the world and just 3 in the USA. So oftentimes you have to choose EE or ME or CPE and do a degree concentration in mechatronics, which is a great path. Some universities have a formal certification program within EE/ME/CPE, or you may have to build it yourself. You would do that by for example, majoring in EE and taking more electronics courses and less about power or telecommunications. You would take robotics electives, signals and controls, and circuits courses, etc. Your CS related courses should revolve around mechatronics rather than something else, and so on.
      Computer Engineering is often a subset of Electrical Engineering. But sometimes engineers struggle to choose between ME vs EE/CPE. This video will help you decide, “Mechanical VS Electrical Engineering” ua-cam.com/video/6PJ-Yw5qVsc/v-deo.html

      @JakeVoorhees  3 роки тому +1

      Automotive engineering is a subset of Mechanical Engineering, and you cannot really major in automotive engineering anyways. You can choose it as a concentration within ME though, so the advice you are getting from people is fine. Software engineering is a tiny part of CS, and if you don't like EE but like software engineering, I encourage you to keep learning about EE in order to understand how much programming EE requires. Lots of EEs end up working as CS people or software engineers.
      Here if you watch these videos, you will have an advantage in making some decisions :)
      “Jobs for Mechanical Engineers” ua-cam.com/video/L95q-d6FWVY/v-deo.html which talks about automotive engineers which is one of the most popular interests within ME.

      Love you thank you for that comment.
      Electrical engineering, without question. Computer engineering is a subset of EE. So you can cross that off. EE > ME is nearly every way, particularly when focusing on mechatronics. EEs also make more money. The median salary of EEs in machine learning engineering? $185,000. It’s also the fastest growing job title in the world as per a 2019 Indeed study.
      By the way, EEs in smartphone and watch engineering - their median is $215,000 lol. Ridiculous. That’s over double the median of overall EEs which is $101,000.

      Nope mechatronics is basically a combination of Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. So watch this video and choose one, “Mechanical VS Electrical Engineering” ua-cam.com/video/6PJ-Yw5qVsc/v-deo.html. Then, take tech elective courses and build relationships and do research in the direction of the other. I think EE has a stronger future than ME, so if you really like math and if you can program well, then EE is the way. Over time there will be more actual degrees for mechatronics, but for now you basically have to build it yourself. Does that make sense? Thanks
