Automation and robotics programs at Rumi Academy prepare students for work in a number of fields, from robotics and computer control methods to hydraulics and pneumatics. Emphasis on assembly languages means students are prepared for work in the computer and IT field as well as in the engineering industry.
If you’ve got a technical mind that you’d like to apply to robotics engineering training, here’s what you need to know.
Robotics and Automation Courses
Robotics and automation programs (usually offered as two- or three-year programs) are generally classified under electromechanical engineering technology, which means skills will focus on the manufacturing and industrial applications of robotics. Math, computer applications and electrical courses will provide a knowledge base for specialized courses such as mechatronics and programming.
Hands-on learning using the latest robotics technology will be a big part of most program curriculums. Students will practice the skills necessary to build, repair, troubleshoot and maintain electromechanical equipment. Many programs offer the opportunity to build small robots or robotic parts as an in-class project.
A career planning course and field placement may also be part of a robotics program to prepare students for work in real-world settings.
