Are there any colleges in New York or on the east coast for Mechatronics?
RIT offers a certificate program.
Many programs are 2-year associate degrees.
In NY, Vaughn College has a BS and RIT has a certificate program.
MVCC offers Mechatronics! its a new program. I go to MVCC, if you have any questions feel free to ask me
@BobWallace and @merc81 What is a certificate program? And is Vaughn even a good college? I looked into it and it has a great B.S program. @NASA2014 MVCC sounds great, but I am looking for a 4 year college.
UNC Asheville offers a Mechatronics joint program with NC State
“What is a certificate program?”
It’s generally a course of study with fewer requirements than that for a degree. Ex.: “I have a BS in mechanical engineering from RIT with a certificate in mechatronics.”
Villanova University also [offers a minor](https://www1.villanova.edu/villanova/engineering/undergrad/minors/mechatronics.html) in Mechatronics.
Another suggestion is to look into the institutional affiliations of authors who publish in the [url=<a href=“http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/09574158%5DMechatronics%5B/url”>http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/09574158]Mechatronics[/url] journal or other [url=<a href=“https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=mechatronics+journal%5Dones%5B/url”>https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=mechatronics+journal]ones[/url]. As I am unfamiliar with the field, I’m not sure how “impactful” this journal is, but it might be worth looking into.
