Education at the Robotics Institute
 |
|
The Robotics Institute is an international leader in robotics
education. The world's first Robotics PhD program was founded here in
1988 with the goal of providing graduate students with the knowledge,
experience, and skills to become the next leaders in robotics research
and education. Graduates from the PhD program have taken on roles
ranging from faculty in top universities to designing and controlling
Mars rovers.
Since the start of the Robotics PhD program, we have steadily grown and
expanded our programs of study. Today, we offer diverse opportunities at
all levels of education - from masters programs and an undergraduate
minor for Carnegie Mellon students down to the K-12 level, where our
renowned programs, workshops, and summer classes inspire and educate the
next generation of roboticists.
