do you mean course as in degree or course as in subject?
doesn't the above fall under telecomms engineering?
yeah its a whole new course with its own subjects,the course content looks quite difficult. Mechatronics itself isn't the easiest of the engineering courses out there.In terms of getting jobs this will be mainly be with national defense organizations which are very hard to get into. As with all engineering courses if the economic growth of Australia persists you will find a job but not necessarily in the space stream.Employers more look at the subjects you studied rather than just the name of the degree.
