BEng (Hons) Robotics and Artificial Intelligence
The BEng in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence has an emphasis on AI and software development for robotics systems that must operate effectively in the real world.
The course content covers both robotics hardware and software in equal measures.
The course delivery has a high practical "hands-on" approach, with practical project-based modules included at all levels.
This new award in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence builds on existing research and teaching expertise in the School of Engineering and Computer Science and addresses a growing demand by government and employers for graduates with this range of knowledge and skills. The award is structured with a strong emphasis on practical work to build your skills and confidence in the usage and application of contemporary Robotics and AI technologies. You will learn the elements needed to build robots, from simple electronic circuitry, software engineering, and control, to high-level robot intelligence and will learn how to develop robotic systems and bring the learning to life.
Work placement
A work placement year option (or Study Abroad year) is available after year 2 of the respective BEng or MEng awards courses.
