About this course
MEng, BEng in Mechatronics and Robotics Engineering (Industrial), a robotics engineering degree focused on the integration of mechanical design, electronics, and computing. Core topics include Systems Design, Circuit Design, Embedded Systems, Control Systems, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. This five-year programme includes an industrial placement and a final-year individual engineering project. The first year covers foundational principles through modules such as Circuit Analysis and Design, Computational Foundations of Artificial Intelligence, Mechanics for Mechatronics and Robotics, and Foundations in Mechatronics and Robotics. The second year progresses to electronic circuit and systems design, machine learning, power electronics, and an embedded systems project. The third year involves electric machines, artificial intelligence, control systems, and an individual engineering project. The fifth year features advanced study including modern industry practice, a team project, autonomous search-and-rescue robot, quadrocopter surveillance drone, multiple antenna transmission and OFDMA for WiMax, surgical inspection robot, and assistive exoskeletons.
