Mechatronic and robotic engineering has the potential to transform the world we live in. This includes providing safer and more energy efficient transport via driverless cars, intelligent healthcare via medical robotics, and keeping humans safe.

Come along to this taster session to see if this could be the right course for you.

Robotics: How can we control and shape our future with robots?

How will robots affect our future? Whether you imagine them tidying your home, being part of the production line in a factory, servicing in a hospital, or driving your cars on the road, robots are here to stay and will play a huge part in our world.

In this taster session we will explore how to design and drive the behaviour of robots to improve our lives. We will also present how we envisage robots to deliver the medicine of tomorrow to targeted and precise parts in our bodies.

You'll get a taste of engineering skills and how to build and control robots in fundamental tasks across these domains.

As a prospective engineer of tomorrow, you'll get a glimpse into an exciting future with robots and begin to feel in control of this technology.

It's a good taster for what you do on the course and it is a great setting to ask any questions you may have. Also, it offered greater insight into the facilities that 91Ö±²¥ offers
