Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Mechatronics (Hons) part time

Hi, I've just finished a Mechanical Degree (Ord) in IT Tallaght and was considering the Mechatronics (Hons) part time in IT Blanchardstown. Just wondering if anyone has taken a similar route after a Mechanical degree or any feedback from someone who has taken the course.

You'd be well suited to the modules on this honours degree. I supervised two projects on this course last year, both students were from non-mechanical/electronic backgrounds, and both did every well.

Typical projects include:
Remote Environmental Monitoring & Control System

Design and specification of a tracking linear parabolic reflector on Solar Tube system

Automatic detection of diabetic retinopathy

A machine vision system to extract blood vessels from retinal images

Radio Controlled Assistive Device for Children with Physical Disabilities

Remote weather station

Development of a portable Androscope
