OverviewRobotic and autonomous systems are now used in areas such as autonomous vehicle guidance, healthcare, remote surgery, industrial manufacturing and domestic assistance. This multi-disciplined BEng Robotics degree brings together electronics, computer software, and mechanics. In the first three years, you’ll be given a background in all three disciplines, along with the opportunity to build integrated systems. In the final two years, you can either continue with a broad-based curriculum, or specialise aspects of contemporary robotics.The MEng Robotics degree includes a six-month industry placement, during years 4 and 5. Advanced courses can also be chosen from the three departments: Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, and Mechanical Engineering.AccreditationAccredited 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 an incorporated engineer and partially meeting the academic requirement for registration as a chartered engineer.EmployabilityWork and studyThis is what our BEng (Hons) students are doing 15 months after graduating:85% are working5% are studying5% are working and studying.In highly skilled work85% of those are in highly skilled work 15 months after graduating.SalaryThe average salary of students 15 months after graduating: £28000The average UK salary of students 15 months after graduating from a similar course: £28000JobsThese are the most common jobs students go into 15 months after graduating:Engineering professionalsInformation technology and telecommunications professionals
