Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Robotics, Mechatronics and Control Engineering (Placement Year) (H672)

Autonomous and robotic systems are ever growing in the world; from industrial robotic arms in production chains, to robot vacuum cleaners, lawn mowers, self-driving cars and drones to space robotics or any other Mechatronic or autonomous system. There is a strong strategic direction for global industry in Robotics and Automated Systems (RAS) as evidenced by a host of national and international strategy documents and networks. Companies are developing robotic and autonomous solutions and products, but now need graduate engineers with the expertise to define the technology.

The aim of Loughborough University's new course is to provide core skills and knowledge in Robotics, Mechatronics and Control disciplines. The programme will enable students to understand the fundamental processes and techniques in autonomous systems, blending subject matter that includes; electronics, control, manufacturing principles, and mechanics.
