Mechatronics is a field of engineering that builds upon and links the classic areas of mechanics, electronics and computer science. This interdisciplinary integration of diverse disciplines is constantly growing. Just about every technology product of our time comprises a mechatronic system – even products in our everyday lives contain both mechanical parts and electronic parts and are controlled by software.
Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences (FH Vorarlberg) is one of the most research-intensive universities of applied sciences in Austria. Studies and research are closely linked at FH Vorarlberg.
In the Mechatronics degree programme, this includes the research centre Microtechnology, the User Centred Technologies research centre and the Energy research centre.
