Get hands-on experience of how robots and intelligent systems are designed and built, and gain knowledge of how they are applied across society.
Real-life robots might be a bit different from the ones on our screens, but they’re completely changing sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, transport, agriculture and energy. Global employers need people like you to become engineers, to build the technology of the future.
Our undergraduate robotics engineering course was one of the first in the UK to provide core robotics education. It combines expertise in mechanical engineering, electronics and computer science to show you what’s possible in this field. Learn from world-leading experts and use our robotics hub, rapid prototyping facilities, Makerspace and Electronics Laboratory.
Surrounded by experts
You’ll have opportunities to learn robot design and control, computer programming, software engineering, embedded systems and artificial intelligence – expertise that’s in high demand. If you choose the MEng option, you’ll also explore specialised areas such as computer vision, machine learning and real-time control.
Engineers, computer scientists, clinical experts and psychologists are all carrying out research with the Centre for Advanced Robotics. Together they’re investigating everything from autonomous systems and cognition to human-robot interaction and medical robotics.
With opportunities to get involved with research, industrial projects and internships, you’ll gain the experience you need to stand out. Decide how you want to make an impact and we’ll help you get there.
Our Robotics Engineering programmes have been accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers under licence from the UK regulator, the Engineering Council.
An accredited degree will provide you with some or all of the underpinning knowledge, understanding and skills for eventual registration as an Incorporated (IEng) or Chartered Engineer (CEng).
Our BEng programmes partially meet the academic requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng). Our MEng programmes fully meet the academic requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
