Hiiii, hope you are doing well. 

By virtue of what a mechatronics system is, it's future is very bright. It is already famous, and will continue to remain do in the future too. 

MMechatronics is the field of study integrating mechanical and electronics becoming mechatronics. 

This also exemplifies that an excellent mechanical component with poor electronics will ultimately result in a poor system. As systems started to get more complex and needed to be smarter, principles of computer science inevitably had to be implemented. 

examples like escalators, elevators, anti lock systems, refrigerator  robots etc. 

As long as computers shined, robotics will thrive. As long as robotics thrives, mechatronics will shine. 

Hey,
As I am also an engineering student, I have learned many things and got to know about the main difference between the branches. So I must say mechatronics is the amazing branch which is mixture of all the fields like mechanical, electrical, computer, software skills to work with robots, automated guided systems etc.
And in future there is amazing scope of this branch.
And hereby is the career choices through mechatronics branch:
Robotics engineer/technician

Automation engineer

Control system design/troubleshooting engineer

Electronics design engineer

Mechanical design engineer

Data scientist/big data analyst

Instrumentation engineer

Software engineer

I hope this will help you out, for further query you can comment below without any hesitation.

Thank you.

Mechatronic  engineers  work in all aspects of the development of the  smart machine   from design and testing  right.  through to    manufacture.   This could be in industries like  robotics  ,medical  and assistive technology,  human-  machine  interaction, manufacturing,    unmanned aerial and   ground    vehicles and education.so if you choose mechatronics engineering you may get these jobs.
