In this course, a multitude of advanced topics related to mechatronics will be discussed. It is aimed to introduce the students with state-of-the-art in the field of Mechatronics and Control Engineering. Some of the suggested topics (provided as an example only) can be as follows:

  • Bio-mechatronics, Bionics
  • Cyberware: Interfaces and Prostheses
  • Automotive Subsystems (e.g. anti-lock braking system, intelligent steer control, etc.)
  • Mobile App Design-and-Development Centered on Mechatronic Systems
  • Smart Consumer Devices
  • Entrepreneurship with a Mechatronic Perspective
  • Classification, Clustering and Regression
  • Renewable Energy Resources
  • Advanced Embedded Systems Design
  • Introduction to structural Health monitoring / Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
  • Automation in Construction
  • Quantum Mechanics: Computation and Control
  • Any other relevant topic
