I KNOW HOW ITS TO BE A MECHATRONICS ENGINEER
You know I Am a Mechatronics Engineer and I was wondering "how this degree is gonna make me compete with other conventional degree course holders such as mechanical ,ECE,EEE,CSE engineers and triumph in a battle of wits", Actually its a hypothetical question for me until now, Because the major drawback in such a multidisciplinary course is that there is limited time, In common all other degree branches will look upon a similar pattern of problems related to a single domain for a period of 4 years but as a multidisciplinary engineer we jump on various domains and look upon problems, But while shifting from one to another domain our brains persistently sticks to the previous domain and gives us more trouble, to overcome this scenario we need more time to recognize the patterns and respond ,this creates a lag in our problem solving skills. Also to retain something in memory we need attention for a threshold period of time but due to divided attention we keep losing the data and makes us inefficient memory masters. However such a great domain will posses some inherent flaws which is inevitable, So my kind advise for those who choose mechatronics engineering in Anna university is that be aware of the above mentioned drawbacks and either develop skills to overcome it or better choose other degree courses!!!!!
