Program Description
The Robotics minor and certificate provide knowledge for integrating hardware and software with algorithms to create the next generation of intelligent machines and are geared towards students majoring in Mechanical, Electrical, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science.
Academic and Career Opportunities
Robotics researchers are employed in a wide range of occupations that are creating the next generation of technological devices. Roboticists create assistive robots (prosthetics, wearable robots), autonomous vehicles (cars, mining equipment, underwater, and aerial), automated warehouses, manufacturing systems, medical devices, and consumer products (vacuums, 3D printers, craft machines).
