ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING

MECHATORICS STUDY PROGRAM

 

Introduction

Education system is required to make changes leading to improvement of competence and competitiveness of human resource in global market competition. For this Electronics Engineering Study Program State Polytechnic of Sriwijaya opened Mechatronics Engineering Study Program (D IV). This study program  is expected to increase the participation of State Polytechnic of Sriwijaya in providing Electronics professionals that can build nation’s competitiveness in the global market and be recognized for professional work both nationally and internationally.

Mechatronics Engineering Study Program (D IV) is one of study programs in Electrical Engineering  Department. The establishment of Mechatronics Engineering Study Program (D IV)  in the academic year 2013/2014 is aimed at generating graduates that can design, apply, solve problems, have managerial capability, follow the development of science and technology in mechatronics (Kepmendiknas Number 232/U/2000) , and are excellent at mechanics , electronics ( microprocessor / microcontroller , instrumentation and control , maintenance and repairs , analog and digital ) and informatics.

Mechatronics Engineering Study Program (D IV) is the  first applied science study program (D -IV ) of Electrical Engineering in the South Sumatra. This is a kind of  advantage for Mechatronics Engineering Study Program (D IV).
