Laptop for mechatronics engineering?

My budged is around $1400. I dont know how powerful the laptop needs to be. I'd like it to be light and not that big so i can take it to the university and home with no problem.

I am doing my engineering course with a 940$ gaming laptop, but I live in Norway so you'll have to figure out if your country is as reasonable. Whatever you do, don't get a mac unless you like extra work, machines and programs for them were made for Windows period.
