A typical robotics program introduces the concepts of industrial robots and explains how they can be used in a plant or manufacturing system, with a focus on automated manufacturing processes as well as the role of robots and their support equipment. Students study both theoretical concepts and laboratory exercises using a combination of multimedia and robotics simulation software packages.
Students learn to program, test, and debug robot programs. Students investigate motion programming, palletizing, conveyor systems, computer networking, automated sorting systems, vision and tactile sensors, and computer integration. These studies make it possible to design intelligent, reliable, versatile electromechanical systems such as industrial robots, medical devices, aircraft simulators, automated assembly lines, building control systems, and autonomous vehicles
For the technology programs, students learn the technical skills required to repair and modify automated equipment used in the home automation, retail, manufacturing, gaming, security, medical, and energy sector. They acquire knowledge in many aspects of electronics and mechanics including: programmable logic devices, programmable integrated circuits, programmable logic controllers, computer-aided design, computer numerical control, motor controls, programming embedded systems, machine tool operations, and fluid power.
