机器人和自主系统现在用于诸如自动驾驶车辆指导，医疗保健，远程手术，工业制造和家庭协助等领域。这个多学科的机器人学位将电子学，计算机软件和机械学结合在一起。在头三年中，将为您提供所有三个学科的背景知识，并为您提供构建集成系统的机会。在最后的两年中，您可以继续学习基础广泛的课程，也可以专门研究当代机器人技术的特定方面。MEng机器人技术学位包括在第4年和第5年的六个月行业实习。还可以从以下三个部门中选择高级课程：电子工程，计算机科学和机械工程。
Robotic and autonomous systems are now used in areas such as autonomous vehicle guidance, healthcare, remote surgery, industrial manufacturing and domestic assistance. This multi-disciplined BEng Robotics degree brings together electronics, computer software, and mechanics. In the first three years, you’ll be given a background in all three disciplines, along with the opportunity to build integrated systems. In fourth year, you can either continue with a broad-based curriculum, or specialise in particular aspects of contemporary robotics. During your studies, you will apply our ‘learning by doing’ philosophy by practically developing your skills beyond traditional academic content. You’ll work on both individual and group projects from third year onwards, gaining valuable hands-on experience. The projects challenge you to solve a 'real life' problem – such as the project in which our students helped design an electronic egg to monitor penguin incubation. You will be taught how to use industry-standard equipment and facilities, and will be supported and encouraged by staff to use the equipment to further your studies, and innovate creative engineering solutions in your personal time. Why study Robotics Robotics and AI are seen as key technologies for the future and the subject of massive commercial investment. There is a rapidly growing worldwide demand for graduates with the technical skills and industry awareness to create an innovation pipeline from academic research to global markets in the field of robotics. Key application areas include manufacturing, assistive and medical robots, offshore energy, environmental monitoring, search and rescue, defence, and support for the aging population.Potential career pathsEngineering professionalsInformation technology and telecommunications professionals
