Master of Science - Robotics - Electrical and Computer Engineering

The Master of Science in Robotics program at Northeastern looks at this fundamentally interdisciplinary field from three connected angles: mechanical engineering, electrical and computer engineering, and computer science.

Students select a concentration and gain a comprehensive understanding of the algorithms, sensors, control systems, and mechanisms used in robotics to help them stand out in the field and make a transformative impact on society. They can further specialize their degree with flexible electives in a variety of areas, such as mechatronic systems, robot mechanics, control systems, robotic manipulation, artificial intelligence, sensing and navigation, mobile and field robots, medical robotics, and machine learning.

Classes in this multidisciplinary program incorporate direct interaction with a variety of robotic systems supported by highly accomplished faculty, state-of-the art equipment, and advanced laboratories and research centers including the university-wide Institute for Experiential Robotics located in the new EXP building. Research opportunities are available with a variety of robotic systems, including an autonomous Lincoln MKZ car, multiple deep-rated autonomous underwater vehicles, dozens of unmanned aerial and ground robotic systems, commercial and research manipulators, and biologically inspired robots.
