Robotics and Autonomous Systems (MSc)
On our robotics and autonomous systems master's programme, you'll build a comprehensive foundation of knowledge in the key principles and practical applications of intelligent robotic systems.
You'll develop the specialist knowledge and technical skills required to design, build, and deploy robotics and autonomous systems across a wide range of sectors.
During your time on our MSc Robotics and Autonomous Systems course, you'll study core modules in:
- robotics fundamentals
- modelling and dynamics
- sensing and data interpretation
- planning and control
You'll also explore the societal, ethical, and regulatory dimensions of robotics, and gain hands-on experience with real robotic systems through structured laboratory work and group design challenges.
Through optional modules, you may then be able to tailor your learning to areas of interest such as:
- technical areas, including advanced control, computer vision, and machine learning
- application domains, including maritime, automotive, aeronautical, and space
As part of this course, you'll complete an individual research project, under the supervision of an academic aligned with your interests. Many projects will be industry-informed, meaning you'll apply your knowledge to real-world challenges and strengthen your professional and research skills. You'll also have an opportunity to build your professional network through our dedicated MSc conference.
