What it is	You study how to design and operate equipment and systems that transform raw materials into useful products using chemistry and engineering principles. This dual degree means you earn both a BEng from Trent and a BSc from Swansea University in the UK, completing part of your studies at each campus. It suits students who want international experience, deeper chemistry knowledge alongside engineering, and the option to work in industries like pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, or food processing.	Mechatronics Engineering combines mechanical systems, electronics, software, and artificial intelligence to design machines that think and act on their own. Unlike a traditional engineering program, this one requires you to complete paid work terms alternating with school, giving you real industry experience building the robots and automated systems you study in class. It suits people who want hands-on problem-solving across multiple engineering disciplines and are ready to balance studies with work semesters.	Mechatronics engineering combines mechanical systems, electronics, and computer control to design machines and devices that think and move. You'll study how motors, sensors, and software work together in everything from robots to medical equipment. The co-op option lets you alternate between study terms and paid work terms, giving you real industry experience alongside your degree.
