Curriculum
The curriculum is structured across 12 modules that progress systematically from robotics fundamentals to advanced multi-robot systems. The programme begins with an introduction to robotics covering facts, definitions, and history, followed by dedicated modules on the evolution and types of robots. Applications of robotics and the elements that comprise robotic systems are covered before the curriculum moves into the core technical domains of kinematics, dynamics, and motion and control. Sensor-related modules cover sensors and vision systems, followed by sensing and perception. The programme then addresses localisation and concludes with multi-robot systems and learning, integrating machine learning concepts in a robotics context.
There are 12 semesters in this course
Module 1, Introduction to Robotics, covers fundamental facts, definitions, and the historical development of robotics as a discipline. Module 2, Evolution of Robots, traces the technological progression of robotic systems from early mechanical devices to modern intelligent robots. Module 3, Types of Robots, surveys the major categories of robots including industrial, collaborative, mobile, and autonomous systems. Module 4, Applications of Robotics, examines how robotics is applied across sectors including manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, agriculture, and autonomous vehicles. Module 5, Elements of Robotics, covers the core hardware and software components that make up a robotic system, including actuators, controllers, and communication systems. Module 6, Robot Kinematics, addresses the mathematical description of robot motion, including forward and inverse kinematics for manipulators and mobile robots. Module 7, Robot Dynamics, covers the forces and torques governing robot motion, including Lagrangian and Newton-Euler formulations. Module 8, Robot Motion and Control, explores motion planning algorithms and control strategies including PID, trajectory planning, and path following. Module 9, Sensors and Vision, introduces the range of sensors used in robotic systems and the principles of machine vision for robot perception. Module 10, Sensing and Perception, deepens coverage of how robots interpret sensor data to build an understanding of their environment. Module 11, Localisation, addresses the techniques robots use to determine their position within an environment, including probabilistic approaches and SLAM.
