At Liverpool Hope University you will study Robotics developing expertise in autonomous systems alongside artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision and intelligent systems. As you progress, you will acquire extensive practical experience with robotic arms, mobile robots, autonomous systems, sensors, and embedded controllers provides strong industry-relevant employability skills. In your final year, you will undertake a substantial research dissertation in an area such as robotics, human-robot interaction or another relevant area of robotics. Dissertation topics have explored areas including visuo-tactile sensing for object classification and 3D reconstruction, swarm robotics, and AI vision systems for space robots. You will be taught by staff with research expertise in haptics, deep learning, drones and the Internet of Things. You do not need to arrive at Liverpool Hope University as an expert; you will receive close academic support in small-group teaching with hands-on learning through real robotic platforms to develop your customised project work supporting your professional development and future employability. A Year in Industry option is also available, giving you the option of a year in professional employment between your second and final year of your undergraduate degree.
