Robotics

Description

The Robotics program provides students the foundation for design, implementation, and analysis of robotic systems. Students explore the robotics design process, fundamentals of microcontrollers, embedded systems programming, actuator control, and sensor interfacing. Students learn to optimize robotic technology using digital hardware, software programming, and digital and analog circuit design analysis. Through hands-on labs, students solidify their knowledge of core robotics concepts and gain real-world experience building their own robotic systems. Program completers are equipped with the foundational knowledge they need to enter the robotics field.
