French term or phrase: mécanique-énergetique, informatique-automatique et mécatronique

I am having trouble translating this phrase (regarding a French engineering school), especially the last term "mécatronique." I cannot find this term in any dictionary or glossary and have no idea what the English equivalent would be. Originally I was told this was a project in the arts/literary field, so these terms kind of threw me off guard. Thanks for any ideas.

Explanation:
I found these terms just doing Google searches, plus using EuroDicAutom. I didn't find much in GDT, though. The last term was actually the easiest one to find.

Input from other translators is welcome...
