Master of Science in Robotics Engineering

As one of the fastest growing and most exciting engineering disciplines, robotics engineering is transforming whole industries—including automation, manufacturing, healthcare, transportation, energy, agriculture, service, search and rescue, material handling, education, and security and national defense.
With some of the most widely respected faculty in the nation and advanced robotics courses, graduate students turn theory into practice as they make robots, create software to operate them, understand how robots communicate, and study the ethical implications of using robots in a human world.

The foundation of robotics course work is supplemented by forward-thinking engineering course options in project management or entrepreneurship and innovation. You’ll have the freedom to design your own capstone work or thesis in whatever area interests you the most, and you’ll work closely with faculty to make sure it advances your study.
