25 Automation MSc Degree Programs

The MSc in Computational Cognitive Science is unique in its combination of artificial intelligence, cognitive science and modeling, language & speech technology, and computational neuroscience. Also, our faculty is the home of the 2016 Nobel Prize Winner in Chemistry, Ben Feringa, and the Nobel Prize winner in Physics, Frits Zernike.

As intelligent autonomous robots increasingly become part of our lives, the field of human-robot interaction seeks to understand and improve all aspects of interactions between humans and robots.

The industry 4.0 requires the companies to quickly adapt in order to maintain their competitivity or even survive on the market: shifting to circular organization, integrating new technologies and hybrid systems, making the most of the Internet of Things (IoT) and using predictive analysis tools to manage the production and maintenance.

The MSc (Computer Control & Automation) programme provides practising engineers with advanced practical tools in the development, integration, and operation of computer-based control and automation systems.

The MSc in Intelligent Automation This programme gives you the prerequisites for a leading role in the future smart factory where digitisation and virtual tools affect the daily work of both supervisors and operators. In the future smart factory, digitalisation will not be limited to machine equipment and production systems, but also greatly affect the daily work of both management and operators.

The Master in Artificial Intelligence and Automation Engineering gives students strong scientific and technological background on complex engineering problems with emphasis on advanced topics in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Robotics, and Automation Engineering.

This program aims at providing graduates with sound engineering skills to design, to develop, to implement and to manage automation systems for manufacturing plants, industrial processes, mechatronic devices, distribution networks and environmental systems.

The Digitalization and Automation study program is aimed at graduates of electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, computer science, and industrial engineering. In the field of robotics, programming, and technology, you will be introduced to new developments and future-oriented topics. The special features of the newly created curriculum are the advanced study contents and varied teaching activities, such as interactive lectures and practical experiments.

Become an engineer in robotic technology at SDU in Odense - Denmark's Robot Valley

The MSc Robotics at Heriot-Watt will provide the students with training in core elements of modern robotics and autonomous systems. This one year postgraduate masters degree in Robotics will equip students to work in industry in areas where robots can be used to improve productivity, transform transportation, work in extreme environments and improve the quality of life.

Graduates possess both, the knowledge and abilities necessary for creative work in design, construction, programming, and analysis of automation and control systems, and can operate industrial and service robot systems. Graduates can be also employed as senior management staff in mechanical, electrotechnical, chemical and related industrial sectors. They can design and analyze complex robotics systems using advanced design and analytical tools.

The goal of this program is to prepare students for the design and development of software for intelligent systems including, e.g. autonomous cars. Students will get up-to-date knowledge in one of the fastest-growing and dominant technological trends of the future. The training offers students the opportunity to acquire valuable knowledge and competences in software technology, real-time systems, artificial intelligence, robotics and deep learning, data mining, computer image and signal processing, process control, computer graphics, and vision. Electives include GIS systems, autonomous systems security issues, and industrial mathematics. Students will be involved in the work of the research labs and can work on real industrial research together with professionals of leading companies interested in autonomous systems and autonomous driving.

The Robotics and Autonomous Systems major provides a competitive skillset and profound knowledge in the highly relevant field of Internet of Things (IoT) based smart and autonomous embedded systems, with the main application areas in mobile robotic systems and smart environments.

This program is geared towards practicing IT/Computing professionals within industry who seek further formal qualifications in Artificial Intelligence.

Courses focus on the most important topics of modern control theory, such as optimal control, stochastic control, robust control, fuzzy control, and adaptive control, as well as on the problems of systems identification and adaptive signal processing.
