MEng (Hons) Robotic Engineering

The MEng in Robotic Engineering at the University of York is a four-year module that will equip students with a strong understanding of the principles of of robotics and mechatronics, along with a comprehensive knowledge of relevant areas of computer science and artificial intelligence. It will allow students to acquire experience in designing and managing sophisticated modern robotic systems, providing ample opportunities for practical applications of the concepts learned. Course Content: The course content spans various areas such as computer programming, signals and systems, control engineering, the principles of robotics, artificial intelligence, sensors and actuators, and advanced robotics. It includes a mix of theoretical learning, practical laboratory sessions, team projects, and individual projects.Key Modules: Core modules in the first and second years include Introduction to Robotics, Signals and Systems, and Control Engineering. Third-year modules include Robotics, Sensors and Actuators, Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, while the final year offers modules such as Advanced Robotics and Swarm Intelligence. Accreditations: This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.Future Careers: Graduates from this course have a wealth of opportunities in the global robotics industry, working with robot manufacturers, end users, research organisations and service providers. This could lead to careers in sectors such as automotive, pharmaceutical, and aerospace or in the public sector within health, defence, and public services.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
