MSc Robotics, AI and Autonomous Systems 

  • DeadlineStudy Details:
    • Full-time: 12 months
    • Part-time: 24 months (up to 28 months)

Course Description

Emerging technologies such as self-driving cars or reusable spacecraft or Drones are increasingly relying on the design and deployment of autonomous systems. This programme will prepare you to face the challenges of a global market with emphasis on autonomous vehicles and mobile robots operating in ground, air, and space.

You will gain in-depth knowledge of recent advances in the theory and practice of Robotics, Machine Learning, Image Processing, Human-Machine Teaming, Communication, and Control.

You will also develop valuable software and hardware skills via extensive lab work in programming and embedded systems design, through industrial design projects.

In addition to the technical part of the programme, you will be introduced to the legal and regulations framework of Autonomous Systems, and the ethical issues arising from their deployment.
