About the Programme
B.Tech in Robotics is an interdisciplinary engineering program that combines mechanical engineering, electronics, computer science, and control systems to design, build, and operate intelligent machines. As industries evolve toward automation and intelligent systems, robotics has emerged as a cornerstone of modern engineering and innovation.
At Galgotias University, the B.Tech in Robotics program is designed to equip students with the technical expertise and creative thinking required to excel in the rapidly expanding field of robotics and autonomous systems. The curriculum covers a balanced mix of theory and hands-on learning, drawing from key areas such as mechanical design, embedded systems, sensors and actuators, computer vision, artificial intelligence, and control algorithms.
Students gain practical experience through labs, simulation tools, and real-world projects, enabling them to design robotic systems that can perceive, think, and act. They will learn to integrate hardware and software to develop robots capable of autonomous decision-making, human-robot interaction, and intelligent task execution.
