Specific objectives of specialization: preparing mechatronics engineers for multidisciplinary research; initiating technical cooperation in the area of advanced mechatronics by deepening specialization and applied mechatronics; deepening mechatronic systems using nuanced and relevant evaluation criteria and methods - simulation modeling - to formulate value judgments and base constructive decisions; acquisition of information technology with applicability in mechatronics through the development of practical skills for design and technological construction of components and methods of using acquisition systems and image processing; preparing students for a thorough knowledge of components of mechatronic systems; developing creative behavior with specific mechatronic products through the development of professional projects and/or research; underlining the need for diagnosis and maintenance of mechatronic systems; skills needed for students to design, optimize and deploy applications in industrial mechatronics, services, medicine, the military, virtual and augmented reality applications, etc; addressing problems in the spirit of constantly dynamic economy requirements.

Marine and offshore oil & gas technology are growth industries today. About 71% of the Earth’s surface is water-covered, and the oceans hold about 96.5% of all Earth’s water. Offshore oil & gas technology is crucial for extracting the resources that the oceans can offer.
