The B.Tech in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence is an advanced undergraduate program designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in the rapidly evolving fields of robotics automation, and AI-driven systems. This program blends mechanical engineering, and artificial intelligence and the graduates would be primarily prepared to meet current & future industrial manufacturing and R&D requirements.
The Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (R&AI) undergraduate programme amalgamates multiple engineering disciplines such as Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Computer Science and Engineering. R&AI program introduces the leading technologies underlying the development of Robotic and Intelligent systems, including Machine Learning (ML) and AI, that sense and interact with their physical environment. AI empowers the robots making them more efficient to perceive, learn and make decisions like humans. Industries are going through the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0), which utilizes Robotics and AI to perform the data – intensive and repetitive tasks to achieve human- robot collaboration. Hence, the need for a skilled workforce in industries with knowledge of Robotics & AI is in growing demand.
The students will get trained in Robotics and AI through a well-structured curriculum designed with the participation of industry experts and academicians. Students can study and implement multidisciplinary concepts such as machine vision, machine learning, edge computing, IoT, Cobots, and Industry 4.0. The coursework, such as mathematics for intelligent systems, fundamentals of AI, Deep learning Big Data Analytics, Reinforcement Learning, etc., equip students to implement several AI projects to hone skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and practical implementation of AI in robotic technologies. Students also get an opportunity to avail of exchange programs at other universities where similar research on Robotics & AI is being focused. The interdisciplinary lab experience gained by the students through the projects and group activities imparts the necessary knowledge to fetch either a job or admission to higher studies aspired by the students. After completing the program, the students will have strong knowledge of designing, developing, and testing algorithms for implementing AI in robotic systems for industrial and societal applications.
The graduating students can create highly efficient machines and human-friendly interfaces for intelligently automating robotic systems addressing the modern challenges in automation. In addition to the core engineering courses, the students are exposed to imparting human values and life-long learning skills.
