Understand the basic difference. Mechatronics Engineering is about creating smart machines and robotics. It blends the knowledge of mechanical, electronics, and automation engineering.

But the Mechanical Engineering is about making traditional machines, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and structural design.
