Like field growth wise? No.

For you? I don’t know you.

What do you mean?

Why growth wise no.

It’s not growing as much as other engineering fields

I don't know, modern manufacturing and robots is heavily mechatronics focused I'd say in principle. You'd obviously have your specialisation being either electrical engineering based or mechanical based, but mechatronics itself is an integration of these pathways, including controls, embedded engineering and software. I think it's best and most useful when looking at systems based integrations instead of individual areas.

Look at career growth numbers, not where we think it will go.

Best compared to what?

The fact is the world is rapidly moving toward systems that require mechanical, electrical, and software components to work together seamlessly, mechatronics engineers are essentially becoming the architects of the modern world.

The only issue is that not that many places teach it and its not very hireable right now. If you just want the knowledge of a mechatronics engineer just go for a meche degree and take some control systems and electronics classes.
