The students are able to recognize and understand the importance of mechatronic tasks in the engineering sciences. They can describe, model and simulate mechatronic systems and master a methodical approach in the development of mechatronic systems. They are familiar with the development methodology (V-Modell) for mechatronic systems and are familiar with functionalities of technological disciplines in mechatronics and their interaction.
