Shaping the future with a new Robotics and Intelligent Systems (MSc)

27 January 2025

Cardiff University’s School of Engineering has launched a new Robotics and Intelligent Systems (MSc), designed to equip the next generation of experts with the skills to shape the future of technology.

The programme offers a comprehensive foundation in robotics and autonomous systems, with a strong focus on their practical application in mechatronics design.

Dr Ze Ji, Programme Lead for the MSc explains, “This MSc is crucial because it bridges the gap between cutting-edge theoretical knowledge and practical skills."

We’re preparing students to solve real-world problems by applying advanced robotics and AI techniques to industry challenges.

Students will gain hands-on experience in the newly built Autonomous Systems and Robotics lab, applying their learning to both research and industry projects. Right from the start, they will develop a deep understanding of the science and engineering principles that underpin robotics.

With a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical experience in robotics engineering and artificial intelligence, students will be equipped to solve complex, real-world problems.

A range of optional modules across various engineering disciplines will allow students to personalise their learning and build skills to match interests and career goals.

Dr Aled Davies, Director of Postgraduate Teaching, asks "Why should students apply?"

This MSc is an opportunity to be at the forefront of one of the most dynamic fields in engineering. It’s not just about learning; it’s about creating the technology of tomorrow.
