Education and Teaching

What will I learn

In Mechatronics Engineering (MTE), students build foundational skills in math, physics, computation, and programming. They study mechanics, dynamics, oscillations, gravity, and the basics of electricity through courses in electrical circuits, digital logic design, and electronics. They also explore engineering materials, including material strength, stresses, and strains with applications in design.

Students gain in-depth knowledge in mechatronics topics such as fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, and mechanical drawing, including AutoCAD. They study microcontroller systems, machine intelligence, sensors, actuators, and power electronics, along with programmable logic controllers (PLCs) for solving mechatronics problems.

Advanced courses cover CNC technology, robotics, and manufacturing technology, focusing on mechanical design, engineering drawing, machine elements, and manufacturing processes.

How will I learn

The BSc in Mechatronics Engineering meets local and regional demand by training graduates to integrate mechanical, electrical, and electronic engineering principles. Students will learn through lectures, practical applications, and group projects to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. They will also gain hands-on experience in laboratories, workshops, and by designing mechatronics systems. Field training through internships provides real-world exposure to apply learned concepts.

Mechatronics students will use their knowledge to critically evaluate problems and develop solutions, preparing them for their future careers. The program builds both theoretical and practical skills, boosting students' confidence and passion for their chosen profession.

Jenin campus

The Arab American University operates two campuses: the main campus in Jenin and a newer campus in Ramallah. The program is delivered at the main campus on Telfit Street, Jenin, Palestine. Typically, all academic activities associated with the program occur at the university's main campus in Jenin, Palestine.

Classrooms

Classes are conducted in classrooms and laboratories during the day. Since 2019, the university has implemented a blended lecture system, combining in-person instruction with online sessions via Zoom when necessary.

Libraries

AAUP’s Library is located on the 4th floor of the IT building on Jenin campus. The size of the library is about 1400 square meters, where the stacks, reading areas, staff work areas, and computers for library applications are located.
