Objectives
By the end of this subject, students will be able to have: 1. Coherent knowledge of their branch of engineering including some at the forefront of the branch in robotics; 2. The ability to apply their knowledge and understanding of robotics to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems using established methods; 3. The ability to apply their knowledge and understanding to develop and realise designs to meet defined and specified requirements; 4. An understanding of design methodologies, and an ability to use them. 5. Workshop and laboratory skills. 6. The ability to select and use appropriate equipment, tools and methods; 7. The ability to combine theory and practice to solve problems of robotics; 8. An understanding of applicable techniques and methods in robotics, and of their limitations
