Undergraduate Program - Electrical Engineering - Mechatronics and Embedded Systems Option (outdated)

The Faculty of Engineering offers a Mechatronics and Embedded Systems (MES) Option. Students are advised that because of restricted facilities and staff, it may be necessary to limit the offering of this program. Students who complete all requirements of a B.Eng. Program as well as all requirements of the Mechatronics and Embedded Systems option will receive their B.Eng. degree in the appropriate specialization, and their transcripts will also bear the designation Mechatronics and Embedded Systems Option. Students currently registered in the program can visit course syllabi, notes and lab instructions for detailed course information. Please refer to the Mechatronics and Embedded Systems Option website for further information on this option.

In addition to the Electrical Engineering Core, Specialization courses and electives, the Mechatronics and Embedded Systems Option requires completion of an additional 7.5 units of courses as follows:

1. ENGR 466 Integrated Mechatronics and Embedded Systems Project (3 units)
2. At least one from the following list of courses (1.5 units):
   • MECH 458 Mechatronics
   • SENG 440 Embedded Systems
3. Two courses (3 units) from the following list of courses where at least one has to be a 466 course:
   • ELEC 460 Control Theory and Systems II
   • ELEC 466 System-on-Chip Engineering for Signal Processing
   • MECH 458 Mechatronics
   • MECH 466 Microelectromechanical System
   • SENG 440 Embedded Systems
   • SENG 466 Software for Embedded and Mechatronics Systems

Notes:

• Students in the MES option do not need to take ELEC 499 as part of their program. The ELEC 499 requirement is replaced by the requirement to take ENGR 466.
• EE students who wish to take SENG 466 as part of their MES option should note that there are 2^nd and 3^rd year level course pre-requisites which are not part of the regular Electrical Engineering program.
• The units for MECH 458 and SENG 440 cannot be counted under both b and c.

Students are advised that because of restricted facilities and staff, it may be necessary to limit the offering of this program.

Credit for one work term will be given to students completing this option due to the industrial exposure provided.

Students who complete all requirements of a BEng Program as well as all requirements of the Mechatronics and Embedded Systems option will receive their BEng degree in the appropriate specialization, and their transcripts will also bear the designation, "Mechatronics and Embedded Systems Option."

All courses taken in the Mechatronics and Embedded Systems option will be included in the Faculty standing review of students in the BEng Program.
