Mechatronic and Robotic Engineering Beng (Hon)

Learn about the fundamental concepts in mechatronic and robotic areas, including mathematics, intelligent system design, computing, control, electronics and embedded systems. Then go on to practical work that brings the concepts together using 3D CAD tools, 3D printing, laser cutters and more in the iForge makerspace.<br/><br/>**Become an expert in robotics on this BEng course in mechatronic and robotic engineering.**<br/><br/>Informed by world-leading research and designed with industry partners, this course in mechatronic and robotic engineering will shape you into a highly employable engineering graduate.<br/><br/>All through your time here, youll use industry standard equipment, and learn about state-of-the-art applications in robotics, industrial control and advanced manufacturing.<br/><br/>Year one provides a solid foundation in the theory of complex electro-mechanical systems and a fundamental understanding of mathematics and computing, with a focus on controlling robotic systems. Youll have the opportunity to design and analyse complex electro-mechanical systems as part of a team.<br/><br/>In year two you will explore areas like programming in languages such as C++, mechanical design and intelligent systems, you’ll go on to apply your skills to a practical project. This will see you designing a system using 3D CAD tools, and building robots in our innovative iForge Makerspace.<br/><br/>In your final year youll take specialist modules that cover robotics and machine learning, amongst others - tailoring your degree with optional study areas, and getting detailed experience in the lifecycle of engineering projects through group work.<br/><br/>You’ll bring everything you have learned together to complete an advanced project. You’ll collaborate with a world-leading academic to embed technical knowledge and expertise.<br/><br/>**This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), the Institute of Measurement and Control and the Engineering Council UK.**<br/><br/>**Why study this course?**<br/>- Take your ideas from paper to reality: Work collaboratively with other student engineers to create the most effective robotics with autonomous technology.<br/><br/><br/>- Go on to great things: 90% of graduates from our course are in work or further education 15 months after finishing.
