Program details

Overview

This graduate certificate gives working engineers and recent graduates a grounding in the core disciplines behind robotics. It also teaches how robotic systems fit within larger engineered systems. The plan of study combines a foundational robotics course, a depth block on robot dynamics, robot control and systems engineering concepts, and one elective in math, science or engineering approved by an advisor. A depth block can instead use thematically related robotics graduate courses with committee approval. Credits earned can count toward an advanced degree later, so the certificate works as a first step toward the master's in the field or as a stand-alone credential for career growth. Interested applicants can request information or apply from the program page, which also links to application requirements. The short sequence suits professionals who want a defined, credit-bearing step without committing to a full degree right away.
