Overview of the programme   MSc Robotics is intended to be both an academic and industry facing programme. It is aimed at graduates from a computing / engineering / science discipline who wish to focus their skills and competencies in understanding the practical and theoretical aspects of robotic systems. This is an area with a wide-range of applications in industry and research.   This MSc focuses on the computational side of Robotics with an emphasis on the software engineering aspects. In addition it provides the ability to investigate the field of Artificial Intelligence applicable to this sector and a substantial portion of the programme concentrates on the effect that robots have on society. It is the intention of this programme to produce specialists with up to date knowledge and skills that are capable of being used in an industrial, commercial and research environment.   Although the necessary background is introduced as appropriate, the course deals with problem-solving and the provisioning of real time aspects of computer based solutions and applications using current and emerging technologies. In addition to developing an understanding of underlying principles, students are engaged in the practical application of design, implementation, trouble-shooting and management for real-world problems.
