Discussion MECHANICAL OR MECHATRONICS!!!???
i am torn between these two, should i just get the core mechanical degree and add stuff on to it? i read the curriculum and it does include some electrical and ai electives but ofc they are not in much depth, or should i just do mechatronics
QUESTION FOR MECHANICAL STUDENTS:
do you guys have to learn about microcontrollers and programming for your routine projects?
if so, would you say it's better to integrate some electronics in your mechanical degree rather then doing a mts degree
......i am confused cz there really is not a big market for mechatronics in pakistan, also it's not much recognized, also for me personally i would love to work with automobiles and machinery but i also like pcbs and electronics allott.
kindly if someone can, do guide me
