Abstract: The technological education and research scenario, world over, is converging towards multi-discipline one. The primary reason is being the fact that the next-generation technological designs will be of highly complex and inter-interdisciplinary nature involving synergistic integration of many aspects of engineering knowledge base. This paper concentrates on describing the scope of three upcoming interdisciplinary technological disciplines such as mechatronics, photonics and computronics. The paper starts with introduction followed by some descriptions on the trends in technological education. Next the scope of mechatronics, photonics and computronics has been enlightened. The names of some of the Institutes and Universities, providing education on these disciplines have been mentioned. Finally the paper briefly reviews the aspects of basic research activities within interdisciplinary domain.
