Abstract :
The paper presents a transdisciplinary perspective on mechatronical knowledge achievement. Starting from the beginnings of the mechatronics, are presented the five stages of the way the mechatronics emerged as an educational paradigm, as a reflexive logic-creative way of communication and a socio-interactive system of thinking, living and acting in a transdisciplinary context. Very important is the explanation of the transdisciplinary way the mechatronical disciplines, as optomechatronics, robotics, biomechatronics are generated by a transdialog process between disciplines, through predisciplinary, codisciplinary, pluridisciplinary and crossdisciplinary stages.
