Informed by our world-leading research and designed with input from our industry partners, this is a masters level course designed to shape you into a highly employable engineering graduate.

From a first year spent learning how to control robotic systems, and a second year exploring areas like programming (C++), mechanical design and intelligent systems, you’ll go on to apply your skills to a practical project. This will see you designing a system using 3D CAD tools, and building robots in our innovative iForge Makerspace.

In fact, all through your time here, you'll use industry standard equipment, and learn about state-of-the-art applications in robotics, industrial control and advanced manufacturing.

In your third year you'll take specialist modules that cover robotics and machine learning, amongst others – tailoring your degree with optional study areas, and getting detailed experience in the lifecycle of engineering projects through group work.

All that academic study will then be put into context with a year-long industry placement, where you’ll be challenged and developed into an engineer. Finally, you’ll bring everything you have learned together to complete an advanced project in year five, collaborating with a world-leading academic to embed technical knowledge and expertise.
