Become an expert in robotics and autonomous systems, with the skills to join the next generation of engineers. You’ll learn about machine and artificial intelligence (AI), robotic sensing and perception, control and planning and robotic devices and systems.
Robotics is increasingly important to a variety of sectors, including manufacturing, healthcare and aerospace. Autonomous systems and robotics, the Internet of Things, smart grids and cloud computing are also being used more widely.
This course will help you develop your knowledge and skills in the key areas of robotics and autonomous systems. You'll learn about machine and artificial intelligence (AI), robotic sensing and perception, control and planning and robotic devices and systems. You’ll be able to apply your skills across many engineering disciplines and you’ll use the latest industry standard CAD and hardware tools to design and analyse mechatronic systems.
You can choose optional modules, including working with companies on real opportunities and problems experienced by industry, or specialising further in AI by understanding machine learning.
In addition to taught modules, you will undertake an individual research project, working alongside world-class academics and using state-of-the-art facilities. The project provides an opportunity to apply your knowledge to a real engineering problem, often in collaboration with industry or research centres.
Graduates from the programme are well prepared to enter both technical and leadership roles in robotics, or use their skills in industrial automation, aerospace, automotive and energy sectors.
