The present article present the evolution over time that Mechatronics education has undergo throught 12 years of experience. It analyzes the study methods, since its beginnings up to the projected actual state. The main analysis is done against the Grimheden model that shows the synergistic nature of mechatronics, and compare against the evolution in the curricular design in Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE, three stages are analyzed because of the three major curricular design changes that have taken part during 12 years. In base of the three curricular designs and overlapping them with the Grimheden model a comparison is stablished for two stages in the carrer, first year and fourth year, for first year the subject of Mechatronics engineering Introduction is observed and for fourth year the subject Mechatronic Instrumentation is taken. Finally results and conclusion from this analysis are portrayed.
