In this Industrial Mechatronics program, students will deal with the design, construction, and operation of machinery involved in some of the world’s most pressing challenges.
About the program
Mechanical Engineering is a dynamic field that encompasses the engineering aspects of almost everything that moves in the universe. In this program, students will deal with the design, construction, and operation of machinery involved in some of the world’s most pressing challenges related to energy, environment, robotics and advanced manufacturing, transportation on the ground, in the air, in outer space, and on and underwater.
The program will uniquely qualify students to design and test wide-ranging solutions for state-of-the-art mechanical systems and emphasizes several areas of technology, including aerospace, thermal power, design, materials and manufacturing, and mechatronics. It includes a foundation of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering courses. Several technical electives allow a focus on an area of specialization.
The pioneering Industrial Mechatronics concentration provides broad engineering knowledge and skills suited to the engineering of state-of-the-art industrial automated manufacturing and production systems. The concentration deals with real industrial applications of mechatronic systems. It integrates mechanical systems with control systems, process control engineering, intelligent systems, instrumentations, and industrial networks in automated and semi-automated manufacturing and industrial processes. Students will also study the performance and efficiency of modern industrial machinery using advanced sensory control technology at one of the leading mechatronic engineering universities in the UAE – Abu Dhabi University.
Our emphasis is on practice throughout the program, and much of the study will be project-based.

Testimonials
“My journey at ADU is a truly memorable one.”
With hard work, Abid was able to complete his program in three years and graduated in the first cohort of students from the BSc Mechanical Engineering program in 2014.
“Although there were a few good options for studying Mechanical Engineering, I chose ADU not only because of the quality of its program but also because the admissions process was so streamlined.
My journey at ADU is a truly memorable one and the quality of education is something spectacular. The faculty are all highly qualified with experience from prestigious international universities and the laboratory facilities are some of the best in the UAE.
I’m now studying for my Master’s and hope to go on to complete my PhD to achieve my ambition to become a professor.”

Tuition fees structure & calculation
Tuition is based upon the College and/or Department classification as opposed to the course classification or level. Tuition rates for undergraduate students vary from the tuition rates for graduate students.
The tuition fee calculations are an example only and are based on the assumption that elective courses will be taken with the College that the student is taking their major with. However, if the student selects elective courses outside of this College, the total cost payable may increase or decrease to reflect the tuition rate of the College where the elective is delivered.
Costs of books and supplies are not included in the Tuition and Fees. Students at Abu Dhabi University are also required to pay certain fees and other costs to attend the University. Abu Dhabi University reserves the right to change tuition and fee rates at any time. A tuition schedule is published prior to registration for each semester.
