Introduction to Robotics

No prerequisite

This fully online certificate EQF Level 6 program equips students with a strong theoretical and practical foundation in robotics and autonomous systems. Through simulation-based labs, collaborative projects, and real-world problem-solving, students gain hands-on experience in designing, controlling, and optimizing robotic systems. The two-year curriculum (three terms per year) culminates in a capstone project, where students tackle a complete robotics challenge, integrating perception, control, and decision-making.

1. Introduction to Robotics:

Covers robot kinematics, dynamics, sensors, actuators, and control systems. Students explore diverse robotic applications through simulations.

Learning Outcomes:

• Describe robotic subsystems and their functions.
• Apply kinematic and dynamic principles to robot motion.
• Implement basic control strategies in simulation.
• Compare robotic systems across industries.

The online delivery blends synchronous and asynchronous components. Students complete self-directed assignments hosted on the course platform. Weekly Forums support a required active, rubric-based student contributions that foster collaboration.

Exams may include essays, short answers, or MCQs. Formats include open/closed book. Time zones are considered. Assessments are formative and summative. Students have 2 weeks to review grades and must follow the appeal process in the Student Handbook.
