|       In the past year, a joint effort between the mechanical and electrical engineering departments at TTU has focused on creating and implementing a curriculum designed to strengthen the mechatronics experience for engineering students at TTU. This effort, along with the support of NSF, has led to the implementation of the first true collaborative, project-oriented course combining students in both the mechanical and electrical engineering departments. This project was created to provide students with appropriate experience in design, development, and realization of mechatronics systems for practical applications. |
