The Associate in Science in Mechatronics, robotics, and Automation is designed to prepare students for employment as smart operators or system technicians depending on the pathway. The program prepares students for careers in the design, operation, and maintenance of mechatronics systems, industrial robots, and industrial automation systems, focusing on the local industries that utilize these technologies, such as food production, petroleum production, fabrication, logistics, etc. This program applies electronics and computer technology to industrial automation systems, including instrumentation and control, industrial robotics, and process control systems. Significant emphasis is placed on project-based learning facilitated by significant laboratory work. To earn an Associate Degree, students must complete: (1) all major course requirements with a minimum grade of "C"; (2) 25 units of General Education Graduation Requirements; (3) the cultural diversity and reading requirements; (4) any elective courses needed to complete a minimum of 60 units; and, (5) have a minimum GPA of 2.0. At least 50 percent of all major coursework must be completed at Cypress College.
We are projecting 15 completers per year.
The following is the PSLO for our program:
