The MSc Robotics and Artificial Intelligence programme is designed for students with a background in engineering, computer science, or a related subject who are interested in pursuing a career in the rapidly growing field of robotics and AI.
Start in September or January and take advantage of the high demand for robotics and AI engineers.
The convergence of robotics and AI is revolutionising industrial automation and has led to a high demand for robotics engineers who have the knowledge and skills needed to design, develop and evaluate systems to help companies improve their processes and operations.
This master’s programme covers the fundamental concepts and skills of robotics and AI including robot manipulator arms and mobile robots, bioinspiration, machine (deep) learning, simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM), swarm robotics, computer vision and AI. You will also gain hands-on experience through practical projects and lab work in our dedicated robotics laboratory.
We place a particular focus on handling uncertainties in industrial processes, machine learning methodologies and algorithms, autonomous systems and the application of advances in robotics and AI to the optimisation of manufacturing and industrial operations (Industry 4.0).
Your individual project will focus on a problem confronting industry today, providing you with an excellent opportunity to apply the skills and knowledge to solving a practical 'real-word' problems and demonstrate your capabilities to particular organisations or industry sectors.
Careers
Advances in robotics and AI are transforming almost every industry sector from manufacturing and healthcare to fintech, retail and autonomous vehicles.
During the Covid pandemic, many organisations stepped up their use of robotics and automation and this trend is set to continue resulting in an increasing demand for qualified robotics technicians, engineers and computer scientists.
2:1 (upper second class) UK Honours degree, or an Honours degree from a non-UK institution which is judged by the University to be of equivalent worth in Engineering or Computer Science is preferred. Those with a 2:2 Honours degree may also be considered if they can demonstrate 1+ years of relevant experience. Applicants from other academic backgrounds are strongly urged to contact the Admissions Team with their academic transcript listing all the courses they have studied, in order to discuss suitability.
