Course content

Robotics is one of the most discussed topics in recent years; robots are becoming ubiquitous in industrial environments as well as in everyday life. However, as the adoption of robotic technology progressively rises, the skill shortage in robotic engineers will also widen accordingly. This Robotics MSc course will offer students the opportunity to gain practical robot programming experience.

Robotics technologies are being increasingly adopted across various industries. These include automotive, oil and gas, aerospace and energy, as well as potential significant future growth in the service robot domain. This course will improve the employment prospects of students by providing them with relevant theoretical knowledge and practical skills to become robotics engineers and experts in robotics, and to meet the rising global demands. It is unique in its focus on human aspects supported by practical applications.

This master's course provides insight into multiple application domains for intelligent and autonomous robot systems including industry, hazardous environments, health care, domestic/assistive robotics and autonomous vehicles.

We are very well located for visiting part-time students from all over the world, and offer a range of library and support facilities to support your studies. This enables students from all over the world to complete this qualification whilst balancing work/life commitments.This MSc programme benefits from a wide range of cultural backgrounds which significantly enhances the learning experience for both staff and students.
