Mechatronic Engineering with Integrated Master's - MEng (Hons)

Keele University

The Integrated Master’s in Mechatronic Engineering at Keele equips you with the advanced expertise to design intelligent, automated systems that drive progress in robotics and clean energy. In your final year, you will study at master’s level, deepening your technical expertise, expanding your research and innovation experience, and strengthening the leadership skills needed to manage multidisciplinary projects.

- Specialise in engineering to a master's level, building key skills to advance your learning- Benefit from industry-informed teaching, networking opportunities, and practical learning- Develop a range of professional skills including critical thinking, data analysis and evidence-based problem solving- Gain industry experience through a work placement year, preparing you for a range of careers- Study abroad with an international year to broaden your horizonsMechatronics combines mechanical, electrical, electronic, and computer systems into intelligent, automated solutions transforming industries from robotics and autonomous systems to renewable energy and advanced manufacturing. Every project can improve performance, reduce environmental impact, and shape the technologies of tomorrow.This four-year integrated master’s (MEng) combines undergraduate and postgraduate study in one enhanced degree. You’ll begin with Engineering Fundamentals, building the scientific and technical knowledge to tackle complex problems. Alongside this, Engineering Skills will strengthen your practical ability through labs, workshops, and training in communication and project management, while Engineering Simulation and Mathematics will develop your precision in advanced analysis and modelling. In your fourth year, you will complete master’s-level study, advancing your expertise through specialist modules and a major research project.From your first year, you will study mechanics, materials, electrical circuits, digital electronics, programming, and introductory automation and robotics. Specialist study builds in areas such as logic systems, microcontrollers, and sensor integration, alongside CAD and control skills. As you progress, you’ll deepen your expertise in system modelling, control theory, embedded programming, and advanced manufacturing systems, applying these to complex engineering challenges.At master's level, you’ll advance into contemporary topics in mechatronics, combining research-led learning with professional development. You can choose between a Keele-based research project at the cutting edge of robotics, automation, and intelligent systems, or an industry-led project addressing real-world engineering challenges. This additional year sharpens your ability to innovate, integrate disciplines, and lead in a rapidly evolving sector.

Keele University was established in 1949 by the former Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University. Founded to meet the needs of a changing world, Keele has always had a pioneering vision to be a different kind of university.We excel in both teaching and research, with some of the most satisfied students in England, and research that is changing lives for the better at a regional, national and global level.Our beautiful 600-acre campus is one of the biggest in Britain – but all the most important services and facilities are on your doorstep, with accommodation, teaching spaces, facilities including a medical centre, sports centre and pharmacy, and a range of shops, eateries and entertainment venues – including the Students’ Union – clustered around the centre.
