I'm studying it (in Germany).
I like that I learn many things instead of focusing on only one thing. It helps if you're genuinely interested in how everything works, because you will learn a broad field of knowledge with many different concepts.
The downside is that you will not learn the most in-depth things that you would learn if you focused on only one of the fields in the OP image. But you probably won't need that.

So does that venn diagram imply that only 3 or more of those 4 categories are necessary to be considered mechatronics?

its definitely not intended but you're right. what a retard the one making the diagram. probably a mechatronics student

Studying mechatronics engineering won't make you a jack of all trades. You'll get a bit of a grasp on mechanical engineering, some programming or computer science (but not much more than just a language), some electrical engineering, lots of CAD (just like every engineering degree), and that's about it.

You're less marketable than a regular electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, or computer science graduate when applying to a job that requires one of those three fields. It's a bit of a risk to go for that degree if you don't already have a good amount of experience or don't know what type of job you want (if you did, you likely wouldn't be getting a degree in such a broad field).

The mechatronics degree at my local CC seems to mostly be control systems
