In a globalized world, scientific and technological knowledge transcends all borders. To remain competitive, our country must invest in the creation, management, development, and dissemination of this knowledge.

Today, companies use equipment, devices, and machines featuring increasingly advanced technology to achieve greater flexibility, efficiency, and quality. This equipment incorporates the latest in computer technology for design, manufacturing, and control; for example, robots and automated production machines.

As a result of the use of these modern technologies, we have automatic washing machines, printers, cars, beverage bottling plants, toys, airplanes, etc.

The Pontifical Catholic University of Peru, which has highly qualified faculty and state-of-the-art laboratories, will train top-tier mechatronics engineers.

Graduates will be able to work wherever automated processes exist or could potentially be developed—that is, in the following sectors:

• Metalworking
• Manufacturing
• Mining
• Fisheries
• Agribusiness
• Textiles
• Energy
• Petrochemicals
• Transportation
• Services
