Robotics, Minor

Students in the Robotics minor will complete 18 total credits focusing on one area related to robotics while exploring how other areas interface with each other to form a complete robot. Courses are categorized into 4 topical areas--linear systems, software systems, embedded systems, and mechanical systems. In one topical area, they will choose three courses (9 credits), one of which is denoted as a terminal course. Students will also take three additional courses (9 credits) from the remaining topical areas. Of the six courses for the minor at least three must come from courses outside the student’s primary major and cannot be required for their primary major.
