Robot Engineering

Robotics is the field of study that deals with robot system that can perceive the external environment, make decisions about it and then perform intelligent actions autonomously in ways that are similar to humans. Robotics is considered as one of the frontier technologies that can lead the national industrial development in the future just as the automotive industry and the semiconductor industry did before. Hanyang University ERICA Campus maintains high reputation in the field of robotics through many years of performing numerous government and industry projects and research activities. Having this background, Robotics department was found in 2013 with the goal of providing the best college level robotics education and becoming the top-level research robotics institution. Robotics department is one of the Rainbow Department in ERICA campus, offering 4 year scholarship for the students.Robotics is an interdisciplinary field of study, requiring knowledge from mechanical engineering, electric/electronic engineering and computer science. Reflecting these requirements, the curriculum of the Robotics department includes the topics from these domains as well as basic mathematics and science subjects, and strikes a balance between theory and experiment. Outside the class, the department also supports the departmental robotics club HY-MEC, giving students the chance of practical experience in robotics. The ERICA campus hosts the robotics group of KITECH and Gyeonggi Technopark, offering students with the up-to-date robotics research trends through many seminars and internship opportunities.The Robotics department is committed to training its students so that they become the world-class robotics researchers & educators, industrial robotic engineers and government policy makers on national industry.
