This is a four-year programme that includes a year of foundational study and leads directly into the degree course. Our foundation year offers the chance to strengthen your skills, knowledge and confidence, before you advance to stage one of your honours degree.This integrated degree in Robotics Engineering will give you a broad exposure to one of the most dynamic and growing sectors in technology. The unique design of the degree will offer you the opportunity to study the most exciting aspects of robotics and apply them to the design and development of sophisticated autonomous intelligent systems. You will be exposed to a wide range of robotics engineering theories and scientific applications, with consideration for the ethical issues surrounding the sector.Hands-on experience with industry standard equipment will give you practical skills. The degree is integrated closely with the EUREKA Robotics Lab at Cardiff School of Technologies. The Lab is recognised by the UK Government as one of only fourteen specialist research centres in robotics in the UK, and the only leading centre specialised in social and service robotics. This gives you the opportunity to use advanced technologies, get involved in ongoing robotics projects, and work with over 30 specialist robots such as drones, robotic arms, and life-size humanoid robots.You will have access to specialised facilities and some of the most advanced robots on the market. You will be able to work with social, service and educational humanoid robots with advanced artificial intelligence features, and robotic arms for industrial robotics research and development.Bridging research and business, the degree includes real-world cases studies and guest lectures from industry experts. You can also take a placement year in industry and join international trips to visit leading companies and research groups. Upon graduation, you will be ideally placed to start a successful career in this booming sector. You will be ready to meet the business needs of companies operating at the cutting-edge of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, across a multitude of sectors and subject areas.This programme is seeking accreditation with the Institution of Engineering and Technology on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer. The course has been designed to meet the needs of accreditation and with a view to back dating the effective date to include all students who graduate from the programme.We offer this programme with two study options. You can choose four years full-time or five years full-time which would include a one-year professional placement before your final year that will give you hands-on experience in a real-life working environment. This year in industry would give you the practical skills that many employers seek, giving you a competitive edge upon graduation.
