Is Mechatronics Making It?

I think packaging is a perfect case in point. One look at some of the high speed, complex machines that wrap our products and send them on their way more than exemplifies the necessity for the multidisciplined engineer. Not only the design but the maintenance as well demand combining many of the traditional disciplines. Soon I'd imagine vendors who offer maintenance training for their products will expect engineering backgrounds in the techs they train to keep the things running.

Mechatronics is the blend of Mechanical, instrumentation, electronics engineering .It is relatively new branch of engineering at least in undergraduate level. Academician must have prepared the curriculum based on their experience and available information with them. Universities constantly update their curriculum based on the feedback received from industries and other sources.

I believe Building services engineering(civil,power,HVAC,plumbing,fire, CCTV,Antenna, music,telephone etc) will be very useful.
