The world could always use more skilled technicians for designing, programming, servicing and repairing. Join that growing list by enrolling in Dallas College’s Mechatronics program.​

Mechatronics combines the skills of those who work in two different fields: mechanics and electronics. Why? Because advanced manufacturing jobs may require external design of products, the electronic circuits on the inside of a product or the automated equipment that assembles a product.

Thus, they need people who can specialize in both fields.
