ROBOTICS
This Robotics and Automation program introduces students to the fundamental concepts behind how robots move, sense, and interact with the world around them. Through hands-on learning, students operate and program industrial robots while building a strong understanding of robot motion, sensing systems, input/output (I/O) devices, tooling, and basic maintenance. Emphasis is placed on real-world applications used in modern manufacturing and automation environments.
Students also gain experience setting up, teaching, testing, and modifying robotic programs, including vision-based applications using GE FANUC iRVision on the R-30iA Robot Controller. The program prepares students for industry-recognized certifications, including FANUC Handling Tool Operator/Programmer and Universal Robots Operator credentials. By the end of the program, students are equipped with practical skills for careers as robot operators, technicians, programmers, or engineers in advanced manufacturing and automation fields.
