Create the robots of the future
Robots and drones are becoming increasingly widespread, and not just in factories. Today, robotic technology is also found in healthcare, construction, agriculture, space, and many of the devices we use in everyday life. As a robotics engineer, you will be in high demand to develop technological solutions that can make a difference to people and push the world in a greener, safer, and healthier direction.
What will I learn?
As an engineer in robotics, you will be equipped to develop the intelligent systems of the future – from autonomous drones to healthcare and welfare robots.
You will work with mathematics, programming, and the design of electronic circuits. Along the way, you will gain deep insight into how computers work and how hardware and software are integrated in technological systems.
At the same time, you will have ample opportunity to test theories in real-world settings, collaborate across disciplines, and build robots yourself.
"On the robotics programme, you learn many different things. You learn to programme, about electrical circuits and mathematics, and you get the opportunity to apply it in practice through project work."
- Laura Bruun Holm, student
Why you should study...
- You’ll become part of the cutting edge of technological development and make a difference
- At SDU in Odense, you will study at Denmark’s robotics hub
- You will gain an internationally recognised and in-demand degree
Master's Degree
The bachelor's programme lasts three years, after which you take the two-year master's programme to become a MSc in Engineering (Robot Systems). Here you choose to specialise in either Advanced Robotics Technology or Drones and Autonomous Systems. The master’s programme specialising in Drones and Autonomous Systems is in close collaboration with HCA Airport, and part of the training takes place at the airport. Read more about the master's programme in Robot Systems.
What can I become?
As a master’s student in robotics, you will specialise in either Advanced Robotics or Drones and Autonomous Systems. Regardless of your choice, as a graduate robotics engineer, you will be highly sought after in the job market, both in Denmark and internationally.
Robotics, artificial intelligence, and computer vision are found everywhere, which means you can work in a wide range of fields after graduation.
Many robotics engineers are employed in the development of physical robots, automation, and drones. This could be at companies like Universal Robots or manufacturing companies such as Novo Nordisk. But you could also end up developing medical equipment, camera and sensor technology, or working with AI at organisations ranging from Netcompany to Nordea.
