Making robots ubiquitous in society will require professionals that have working knowledge in a breadth of STEM fields and deep knowledge in one or more of these fields. The Undergraduate Track in Robotics trains students in the fundamentals of Robotics with a focus on Computer Science topics in the field, such as localization and mapping, motion planning, and software engineering.

ROBOTICS TRACK CURRICULUM

The Robotics Track curriculum provides guidance on four (4) of the four (4) CSC Restricted Electives that students are expected to take as part of their degree requirements, for a total of 12 credit hours. The track suggests related courses and minors that students may be interested in taking for their remaining Other Restricted Electives.
