    Hi All

    I’m based in Australia and I’m looking at doing one of the above degrees online. Have been working in security and communications for the past 12 years. I’ve done a lot of work with autonomous systems, networking etc. The content of the Mechatronic degree seems more interesting and relevant to me. I’m just wondering is there much job opportunities in Mechatronics in Ireland as I will be moving home in the future or am I better off studying Electrical and Electronics which I still would have an interest in. Any feedback appreciated. TIA

    mechatronics L7 or 8 would almost guarantee you a job at Intel, if that's something that would interest you.
