1. Program Mission

The mission of the Mechatronics Engineering program is to prepare graduates who specialize in Mechatronics engineering and who are able to compete in Egyptian as well as in regional and international labor markets, by virtue of their acquired knowledge, skills, professionalism and ethics.
Thus, the program mission could be defined as:

PM1. Equip students with a systematic knowledge and understanding of mathematics and
engineering science relevant to mechanical, electrical and electronic engineering.
PM2. Provide student with detailed knowledge and understanding of scientific principles
relevant to mechatronics systems and their control units.
PM3. Develop the analytical and practical skills appropriate for designing an integrated
mechatronic system that meets its design requirements.
PM4. Provide students with skills required to measure system states to be able to assess system’s
performance and decide appropriate corrective control actions to be taken.
PM5. Produce graduates that manage their learning and undertake continuing professional
development.
