Get hands-on experience of how robots and intelligent systems are designed and built, and gain knowledge of how they are applied across society. Real-life robots might be a bit different from the ones on our screens, but they’re completely changing sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, transport, agriculture and energy. Global employers need people like you to become engineers, to build the technology of the future. Our undergraduate robotics engineering course was one of the first in the UK to provide core robotics education. It combines expertise in mechanical engineering, electronics and computer science to show you what’s possible in this field. Learn from world-leading experts and use our robotics hub, rapid prototyping facilities, Makerspace and Electronics Laboratory. **Surrounded by experts** You’ll have opportunities to learn robot design and control, computer programming, software engineering, embedded systems and artificial intelligence – expertise that’s in demand. If you choose the MEng option, you’ll also explore specialised areas such as computer vision, machine learning and real-time control. Engineers, computer scientists, clinical experts and psychologists are all carrying out research with our Centre for Advanced Robotics. Together they’re investigating everything from autonomous systems and cognition to human-robot interaction and medical robotics. With opportunities to get involved with research, industrial projects and internships, you’ll gain the experience you need to stand out. Decide how you want to make an impact and we’ll help you get there.
A Level: AAA | Including Mathematics and one of Physics, Electronics, Chemistry, Computer Science, Digital Technology, Information Technology, Further Mathematics or Statistics. Excluded subjects - General Studies and Critical Thinking. Please note: You will also be expected to achieve a Pass grade in the practical endorsement for any of the following A levels - Biology, Chemistry, Physics - if taken with one of the Awarding Bodies in England. | Access to HE Diploma: 33 UCAS points | Access to HE Diploma: 12 UCAS points | Access to HE Diploma | We consider applications from students with the Access to Higher Education Diploma in a Physics and Mathematics based discipline. Entry will normally be to the BEng or BSc. The minimum academic requirement is to achieve 60 credits overall, with 45 credits at Level 3, of which 33 credits must be at Distinction and 12 credits at Merit or higher. Applications are considered on a case by case basis. | GCSE/National 4/National 5 Both GCSE English and Maths at grade C or 4 or an acceptable equivalent will be required. | Extended Project | We consider applications from students offering an EPQ and may make an alternative offer to include three A levels, one grade lower than our usual requirement, along with a specific grade in the EPQ. | International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme: 36 UCAS points | 6,6,6 in HL subjects, including Mathematics at HL, and either Physics or Chemistry, also at HL.
