Introduction

Would you like to explore the most recent advancements in engineering and technology while constructing your own automated intelligent machine in the laboratory?

Dive into the world of intelligent machines

Explore the boundaries of technological innovation and sustainability with a Master's in Mechatronics and Automation. Here, you get to work on real-world challenges and build your own mechatronic systems in our laboratories. These are often fully functional scale models of large cyber-physical systems, of which you will also develop a digital twin.

This hands-on master's program offers you a unique opportunity to collaborate with the industry to develop mechatronic systems.

On Master in Mechatronics and Automation, you will have courses covering topics such as mechatronics, robotics, artificial intelligence, product design, industry 4.0, systems engineering, and digital twins.

You can choose between the following specializations:

  • Robotics and Intelligent Systems (RIS)
  • Marine Systems (MS)

Mechatronics and automation in practice

Throughout the master's program, you get to work on real-world challenges and build your own mechatronic systems in the laboratories. These are often fully functional scale models of large cyber-physical systems, for which you will also develop a digital twin.

Such a setup, with both a digital twin and a scale model, is referred to as a digital triplet. This provides you with an excellent opportunity to gain experience with 'hardware-in-the-loop' in addition to simulation using a digital twin.

Why Ålesund?

NTNU in Ålesund is located between fjord, mountain, and ocean. Here you get the perfect combination of city life and outdoor life. The region has fantastic nature and close access to everything from strolls in the open coastal landscape, surfing on waves in the open sea, to climbing on spectacular mountain peaks in the majestic Sunnmøre Alps. Summer is like winter, the nature experiences are for everyone all year round.

Ålesund is a beautiful port with several islands that stretch out into the ocean. Located North in the western fjord landscape surrounded by the majestic Sunnmøre Alps, and the famous UNESCO World Heritage Geirangerfjord within short range.
