Introduction

University of Hertfordshire

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence prepares students to design, build, and control intelligent robotic systems used in real-world engineering environments.

Key areas of learning include:

  • Robotics and artificial intelligence engineering principles, including sensing, actuation, and intelligent control.
  • Mechatronics engineering systems integrating mechanical design, electronics, and embedded software.
  • Software engineering and programming for robotic control and AI-driven decision-making.
  • Electronic circuitry, control systems, and system integration for functional robotic platforms.

This robotics engineering course places a strong emphasis on applied learning. Students will progress through the full development lifecycle of robotic systems, from design to implementation, under the guidance of local lecturers and university faculty.

The curriculum is developed with input from industry partners such as ABB and Ocado and is reviewed regularly by PSB Academy’s Industry Advisory Board, including representatives from A*STAR, DHL, HP, and Kulicke & Soffa, to ensure alignment with current industry needs.
