Marwadi University Rajkot BE Robotics and Automation: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. The BE Robotics and Automation programme is a specialised variant of Mechanical Engineering that integrates robotics, automation, AI, and Industry 4.0 technologies from the very first year. While regular Mechanical Engineering covers core subjects like thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and manufacturing, the Robotics and Automation specialisation additionally covers Robot Kinematics, Autonomous Mobile Robotics, Machine Vision, Digital Twin for Robotics, and Embedded Systems. The programme is specifically designed for students who want to work in smart manufacturing, autonomous systems, and intelligent robotics rather than traditional mechanical domains.

Ans. The programme has access to several dedicated facilities including the Bosch Rexroth Center of Excellence in Automation, Smart Foundry (supported by DST, Government of India), Advance Robotics Lab, and Rapid Prototyping Lab. Students also use industry-standard software tools such as MATLAB/Simulink for modelling and simulation, Python and ROS for robotics programming, PLC programming for automation, ANSYS for system analysis, and PTC Creo for design. The university also has a Supercomputer (PARAM SHAVAK) for high-performance computing and research.

Ans. Graduates can pursue roles such as Robotics Engineer, Automation Engineer, Systems Engineer, Embedded Hardware/Software Engineer, AI/ML Engineer for Mechanical Systems, IoT Solutions Developer, and Design Engineer (CAD/CAE). Key sectors include smart manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, defence, healthcare robotics, and renewable energy. Top recruiters from the Mechanical Engineering department include Thermax, Uno Minda, Adani, L&T, Siemens Energy, Suzlon, Reliance Industries, Jyoti CNC Automation, and Mahindra CIE.

Ans. Yes, industry internships are an integral part of the curriculum. Students get opportunities for internships at companies like Bosch, Jyoti CNC Automation, and Adani. The university has a dedicated Placement and Corporate Relations department with 3,000+ industry associations for placements and internships. The MUJCAL (Marwadi University Jyoti CNC Automation Limited) facility on campus provides hands-on training in CNC and foundry engineering, giving students direct industry exposure during their studies.

Ans. Yes, students from outside Gujarat can apply directly through the university's management quota. The ACPC counselling process is primarily for Gujarat domicile students. Non-Gujarat students need to apply directly to the university at admission.marwadiuniversity.ac.in.
