Questions
Which syllabus does the Mechatronics course follow?
It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Mechatronics. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.
Will this help in the university examination?
Yes. Teaching is unit-wise as per the AKTU scheme, with numericals, previous-year question practice, MCQ tests and doubt sessions before the semester exam.
Is any hardware used in the class?
Yes. Sensor, Arduino and PLC examples are shown on trainer kits or simulators so students can see the concepts working.
