Course summary
Combine the fundamentals of computer science with the future thinking of robotics and AI.
Discover how robotics work and are programmed by using industry-standard facilities on campus such as our robotics lab complete with DJI Drones, Turtlebot3 mobile robots and humanoids like Baxter, Nao and Pepper.
Plus, develop advanced skills in Python, the language of AI, and study the ever-increasing impact of AI and robotics on society.
You’ll also broaden your horizons with a year of study at one of our partner universities across Europe, Asia, North America, or Australia. Gain new skills, build international contacts, and immerse yourself in a different culture and environment.
Why study at Hull?
• Industry-leading facilities: Learn and hone your craft in our specialist robotics lab, used for robot development and programming activities, and in the Hull Immersive Visualisation Environment (HIVE) with VR theatre, gigapixel wall facilities and wearable devices.
• Real-world experience: Build your network and your experience with a year studying abroad.
• Learn beyond the lectures: You’ll be exposed to a range of extra-curricular opportunities as well as international events to help you practice and hone your skills in real-life situations.
Where could this take me?
Whether you specialise in robotics, AI or a blend of the two, the experience and technical expertise you’ll gain will put you in high demand as you forge your career in this fast-paced and evolving industry.
You could follow many of our graduates into the world of corporate business in roles including robotics software developer, simulation engineer, in autonomous automobiles or as an embedded software engineer. Or follow your vision with a tech start-up to become an architect of future technologies.
