Bachelor in Mechatronics, Robotics, and Automation Engineering (Bachelor's)

At Lawrence Technological University, tuition is Tuition for the 2024-2025 academic year is $22,500 per year for full-time undergraduate students..

This programme focuses on the integration of mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering to design and build robots that operate autonomously or semi-autonomously. Students engage in hands-on projects using real-world tools and technologies throughout the curriculum. The programme emphasizes practical application through team-based design challenges and laboratory work. It prepares students to develop robotic systems used in industrial automation, intelligent vehicles, and automated manufacturing processes.

Focus areas include Autonomous robotics, Robotics system design, Industrial robotics, Embedded systems, Robotics control and navigation, Sensor fusion and computer vision.

The programme requires 128 credits, distributed across core engineering courses, technical electives, humanities, and a two-semester capstone project sequence. The curriculum includes a four-course sequence in unified robotics, covering theory and hands-on implementation of robotic systems.

Graduates work as robotics engineers, automation engineers, or systems integrators in industries such as automotive, manufacturing, and advanced technology development.

Applicants must have a high school diploma or equivalent with a minimum GPA of 2.5. Required documents include official transcripts, standardized test scores, and a personal statement. International students must also submit English proficiency test results.

The programme totals about 128 credit hours. On-campus, full-time, four-year programme. For international students, tuition is above the median for US programmes. The institution admits about 80% of applicants.

On LTU’s Southfield campus, students learn with technology, project-based coursework, and facilities connected to fields such as engineering, advanced manufacturing, data, design, and health sciences. Campus life includes four housing units, more than 100 student organizations, athletics, tours, and events. The Detroit Institute of Arts’ Inside|Out program has also brought large-scale reproductions of artworks to campus. The university’s address is 21000 West Ten Mile Road, Southfield, Michigan.

Lawrence Technological University began in 1932, when Henry and Edsel Ford helped launch the school by providing guidance and space in a former Model T assembly plant. Its approach connects theory and practice, taking abstract ideas into real-world problem solving. The university’s five colleges provide programs in architecture and design, arts and sciences, business and IT, engineering, and health sciences. Offerings include certificates, undergraduate and graduate degrees, integrated bachelor’s and master’s programs, and doctoral study. Health sciences programs include Nursing, Physician Assistant studies, and Cardiovascular Perfusion.

International students use the same application as U.S. students. LTU offers online and campus-based study through Specs@LTU, with media programs that combine current technology, hands-on experience, specialized equipment, and project work. Across the university, students can pursue small classes, faculty mentoring, internships, co-ops, and research opportunities. Programs in data and intelligent systems, advanced manufacturing, engineering, business analytics, information technology, and healthcare connect study with changing professional needs.
