Mechatronics for Practicing EngineersOnline Certificate Program

Mechatronics is multidisciplinary systems engineering – and Hofstra’s certificate program is designed for practicing engineers who want to raise their skill level, as well as for companies who want their employees to have a competitive advantage. The classes, grounded in mathematics and physics, take a human-centered and model-based design approach while integrating rigorous theory and best industry practices.

About the Certificate ProgramThe program consists of 12 one-credit modules, taken in a specific order, one each month for a year: Physical and Mathematical Modeling, Electrical Systems and Electronics, Mechanical Systems, Electro-Mechanical Systems, Fluid Systems, Thermal Systems, Computer Simulation, Measurement Systems, Sensors for Mechatronics, Actuators for Mechatronics, Control System Fundamentals, and Control System Design and Implementation. Tuition for each module is $600.

Hofstra professors provide live contact through weekly, two-hour, online question-and-answer sessions; and monthly, half-day, end-of-module meetings that include laboratory hardware sessions conducted at Hofstra University’s state-of-the-art Mechatronics Lab. Students outside the New York metropolitan area can opt to attend these laboratory sessions remotely.

Prerequisite: BS or associate degree in engineering or a related field of study with at least three years of industry engineering practice.
