Mechatronics represents a unifying interdisciplinary and intelligent Engineering Science paradigm that features an interdisciplinary knowledge area and interactions in terms of ways of work and thinking, practical experiences, and theoretical knowledge. Mechatronics Engineering is about mastering a multitude of disciplines, technologies, and their interaction, whereas Mechatronics Science is about invention and development of new theories, models, concepts, and tools in response to new needs evolving from interacting scientific disciplines. Mechatronics thinkers will play a major role in closing the gap between different disciplines. Mechatronics Engineering Education focuses to produce engineers who can work in a high-technology environment, emphasize real-world hands-on experience, and engage challenging problems and complex tasks with initiative, innovation, and enthusiasm.

Zusammenfassung
Mechatronics represents a unifying interdisciplinary and intelligent engineering science paradigm that features an interdisciplinary knowledge area and interactions in terms of the ways of work and thinking, practical experiences, and theoretical knowledge. Mechatronics successfully fuses (but is not limited to) mechanics, electrical, electronics, informatics and intelligent systems, intelligent control systems and advanced modeling, intelligent and autonomous robotic systems, optics, smart materials, actuators and biomedical and biomechanics, energy and sustainable development, systems engineering, artificial intelligence, intelligent computer control, computational intelligence, precision engineering and virtual modeling into a unified framework that enhances the design of products and manufacturing processes.
Interdisciplinary Mechatronics concerns mastering a multitude of disciplines, technologies, and their interaction, whereas the science of mechatronics concerns the invention and development of new theories, models, concepts and tools in response to new needs evolving from interacting scientific disciplines. The book includes two sections, the first section includes chapters introducing research advances in mechatronics engineering, and the second section includes chapters that reflects the teaching approaches (theoretical, projects, and laboratories) and curriculum development for under- and postgraduate studies. Mechatronics engineering education focuses on producing engineers who can work in a high-technology environment, emphasize real-world hands-on experience, and engage in challenging problems and complex tasks with initiative, innovation and enthusiasm.
