The university updated its selection of comprehensive online courses to assist you in continuing your studies and achieving a higher education from home. With so many disruptions to in-person learning taking place, the school wants to ensure you have full access to the education you deserve.
The applications of robotics engineering, locomotion, and artificial intelligence are being used in a growing number of fields. From healthcare and education to manufacturing and mining, robotics engineering is at the heart of many industries.
The Kinematics and Mathematics course is the first of four sections in the university’s MicroMasters Program. All courses in the program are completed via the school’s online learning platform EdX.
Some important things you’ll learn during the course include describing and analyzing fundamental problems in robotics, understanding the role of mathematics in mobile robots, and using the industry-standard programming environment MATLAB.
While courses are designed to be completed at your own pace, the school recommends committing at least 10 hours per week to complete course work.
During the initial portion of the course, you’ll focus on foundational mathematical concepts such as advanced calculus, trigonometry, and algebra. You should have a solid understanding of matrices, vectors, derivatives, and partial derivatives before entering the course.
In the second half of the program, you’ll begin more in-depth studies of kinematics and kinematic path planning. Core concepts include kinematic chains, forward kinematics, inverse kinematics, and parallel mechanisms.
The Robotics MicroMasters program is made up of four individual courses including Kinematics and Mathematics, Visual Intelligence and Machine Learning, Dynamics and Control, and Locomotion Engineering.
Upon completion of the program, you will be eligible to apply to Penn's accelerated Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) in Robotics degree program.
A current student said, “The material I am learning in the MicroMasters program is useful every single day and has helped me become very effective in a leadership role.”
