University of Sheffield, UK is inviting applications for Mechatronic & Robotic Engineering BEng course starting in September 2021

The University of Sheffield, UK is inviting applications for Mechatronic & Robotic Engineering BEng course starting in September 2021.

This specialist, three-year BEng will develop engineering skills across key areas of mechatronics and robotics, including mechanical design, electronics, computing and control.

The course is designed with input from industry partners and the university’s equipment is industry-standard, so students will be given the best start for their career.

Students will get a foundation in a broad range of mechatronic and robotic areas such as mathematics, computing, control, electronics and embedded systems. In the first year, students will learn how to control robotic systems and they will work as part of a team to design, analyse and test robots, autonomous vehicles and other complex electro-mechanical systems.

In the second year, modules cover advanced control theory, programming (C++), mechanical design and other engineering skills. Students will then apply their skills to a practical project, where they will design a system using 3D CAD tools. They’ll then build the system in our iForge makerspace. This innovative facility gives students access to 3D printers, laser cutters and more.

In the final year, students will take specialist modules that cover robotics and artificial intelligence (machine learning), and they can tailor their degree to suit their interests with a choice of optional modules.

The highlight of the final year is an individual project. Students will develop their expertise in a range of engineering techniques and skills such as project management and communication.

Other options for students:
– Subject to achieving a satisfactory performance student can transfer from the BEng to the MEng degree at the end of the second year.
– Students could switch to the version of this degree with a year in industry.
– Students can choose to study a year abroad.

Eligibility – 80 % marks in XII standard. IELTS grade of 6.0 with a minimum of 5.5 in each component; or an alternative acceptable English language qualification

Fee – Overseas students (2020 annual fee) is £23,750 and the fee for 2021 is yet to be announced.
