MSc Robotics Technology Plymouth University iCub robotwhy study this programme? The MSc Robotics Technology is a unique two year programme collaboratively delivered by Plymouth University and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh, USA. This professional master’s degree programme trains future leaders of robotics and intelligent automation enterprises and agencies, in the principles and practices of robotics, automation science, engineering, software engineering, and management. It aims at training professionals who will be able to lead the development of the robotics industry. The extended project course sequence, a unique feature of the core programme, provides students with the opportunity to apply robotics innovation and research in real-world settings. Begun in year one, the extended project (EP1 through EP4) is a continuum that progresses smoothly through study of research tools and methods, project definition, planning, management, data gathering and analysis. Through this you will draw and report conclusions to a variety of audiences (technical, management, investors, etc) via a multitude of media outlets including oral presentations, written papers or reports, brochures etc. Students work with both the University of Plymouth and CMU academic staff in collaboration with industry to identify an opportunity or problem and develop a solution using robotics and intelligent automation. In year one, the taught element delivered at Plymouth will provide a deep theoretical and practical knowledge in robotics with an emphasis on mobility and interaction. These are areas of robotics where important developments are anticipated. Teaching will cover theoretical and practical knowledge of control and design, interfacing between real-world devices, autonomous processing and evaluation of acquired information, as well as interaction with the user and intelligent decision making. You will have access to a robotics club and other university courses, such as an entrepreneurship course, and will initiate an innovative project inspired by the latest developments in technology and society. Year Two at CMU provides further knowledge in sustainable development, leadership, technology application and industry-oriented project completion. Selected courses will provide a vehicle to increase technical knowledge and expertise. Coursework covers advanced mechanics, computer vision, mobile robot design, programming and development. Students benefit from close mentoring of the project and an application/ implementation plan. ​CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY Carnegie Mellon logoCarnegie Mellon University is a global research university with more than 11,000 students, 84,000 alumni and 4,000 staff. Recognised for its world-class arts, sciences, and engineering programs, collaboration across disciplines and innovative leadership in education, Carnegie Mellon is regularly a top-ranked university. CMU's School of Computer Science consistently ranks in the top five, and often as number one in the USA. Established in 1979, the Robotics Institute (RI) is a world leader in robotics, research, education, and innovative applications, and it was the first university academic department to offer a PhD program in robotics. With nearly 500 academic and administrative staff and students, the RI is also one of the largest robotics research and development centers in the world with a vast array and scope of projects and applications.

Programme highlights Opportunity to experience both the UK and the US academic environment Strong links with highly rated research Access to state of the art industrial and humanoid robots Seminar series with speakers from industry and academia Extended project with focus on the implementation of the latest research results Key features Carnegie Mellon University campusThis two-year masters programme is collaboratively delivered by Plymouth University and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). It offers the opportunity to experience both the UK and the US academic environment. Teaching at Plymouth University is underpinned by some of the Faculty of Science and Technology’s major research groups. This includes its Centre for Robotic and Neural Systems (CRNS) and its Industrial Dynamics and Marine Robotic Systems (MIDAS)research groups. CRNS and MIDAS have contacts with major UK robotics companies. Students benefit from mentoring by CMU staff for their project application/implementation plan. During Year Two, weekly Robotics Institute seminar speakers introduce students to pioneering work in robotics while CMU lectures provide additional exposure to management, innovation and entrepreneurship.​
