Course summary
Introduction
Drawing on the expertise of the internationally renowned Bristol Robotics Laboratory, and provided in partnership with the University of Bristol, this is a unique opportunity to advance your skills and knowledge in the fast-growing area of robotics and automation.
An expanding industry
Innovation in robotics is evolving more rapidly than ever before. This progress is providing a wide range of industries and professions with access to increasingly sophisticated technology.
As well as enjoying a growing commercial side, robotics also supports global scientific research in unprecedented ways, giving us access to more remote, unpredictable and hazardous locations.
The autonomous and remotely operated devices being invented have broad applications and uses, including manufacturing, agriculture, security and medicine. These developments have enabled the robotics to become a billion-dollar industry, creating a growing worldwide demand for experts in this field.
A unique partnership
MSc Robotics is available through a partnership between UWE Bristol and the University of Bristol, providing a comprehensive understanding of advanced robotics and automation systems.
This unique partnership will give you access to the Bristol Robotics Laboratory, a world-leading centre for autonomous robotic systems and research. You'll gain a strong skillset in robotics and automation needed for many technology careers.
An inclusive curriculum
Our new problem-based curriculum will broaden our engineering audience, enabling students from a wider range of backgrounds to pursue a career in engineering. To date, we're the first university in the UK to transform our curriculum alongside constructing a new engineering building.
As a student engineer, you'll start your professional journey towards becoming an incorporated or chartered engineer from day one. You'll learn by doing, applying and revisiting your early skills through embedded project weeks and development of digital and physical prototypes, just as you would in practice.
Careers / Further study
MSc Robotics provides an excellent route into this increasingly important area of innovation, and into research and development. Develop core skills that you'll take with you through your career, such as innovation, teamwork and creativity.
The course also offers the specialisms to support doctorate-level studies and ongoing research careers. You could also go into research by studying a PhD at Bristol Robotics Laboratory.
The partnership between UWE Bristol and the University of Bristol has created a unique centre of excellence for engineering. You'll learn in the heart of one of the UK's most important engineering hubs.
Thanks to Bristol's respected reputation in aeronautics and electronics, the city is a major base for renowned companies in the sector. For example, both universities share close links with Airbus, Rolls Royce, Toshiba and Hewlett Packard.
Our award-winning careers service helps you develop your employment potential through career coaching, a vacancy service for internships, placements, jobs, global opportunities, volunteering and community activity plus support for entrepreneurial activity, and access to employer events.
