Electrical and Electronic Engineering with Robotics Meng (Hon)

Robotics engineers design, build and develop machines and systems for sectors as diverse as manufacturing, energy, aerospace, transport and healthcare. This programme combines electrical and electronic engineering with robotics and artificial intelligence to equip you with the knowledge and skills for a career in the booming robotics and automation sector.<br/><br/>As the worldwide manufacturing industry enters its fourth revolution, (Industry 4.0), innovations in robotics and automation are set to revolutionise almost every sector, from manufacturing and energy, to transport, logistics and healthcare. The MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering with Robotics allows you to gain an advanced understanding of the core electrical and electronic engineering principles and then apply this knowledge to the design and creation of cutting-edge autonomous intelligent systems.<br/><br/>You will use your imagination and creativity to design and build robotic systems and gain hands-on experience via our labs and research groups, including, our state-of-the-art robotics laboratory, laser laboratory facilities and the Aberdeen HVDC Research Centre. You will learn the key skills in demand by industry today, including kinematics, dynamics and control of robotic arms, as well as the key techniques for enabling mobile robots to localise themselves, map their environments or do both simultaneously.<br/><br/>The first two years cover general Engineering, with elements of Chemical, Mechanical, Petroleum and Electrical/Electronics, as well as Civil. In the later years you specialise, following your chosen discipline in greater depth. You do not need to finalise your choice of specialisation until you begin third year.<br/><br/>It is possible to move between MEng and BEng and this can be accomplished at any point until the second half session of fourth year. Successful BEng candidates will be offered the chance to change to the MEng and there is no quota, meaning that if grade requirements are met that transfer is guaranteed.<br/><br/>**Ranked 12th UK, 1st in Scotland for General Engineering (Complete University Guide 2024)**
