Masters of Engineering Robotics

Colleges & Universities University of Maryland - College Park
2

<p>The masters program itself is new, but robotics research and development at Maryland is very well established, well funded and quite exciting! There are two different “centers” - the Maryland Robotics Center <a href=“http://www.robotics.umd.edu/”>http://www.robotics.umd.edu/&lt;/a&gt; and the Institute for Systems Research <a href=“http://www.isr.umd.edu/”>http://www.isr.umd.edu/&lt;/a&gt;. </p>

<p>Some really cool research projects include the Tiny Terps, and the bio-inspired robotics, just to name a few. You should also note that the University of Maryland has neutral buoyancy lab on campus - I believe the only college campus to have this kind of facility! NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center is located in Greenbelt which is about 10-15 minutes from campus, which makes for wonderful access as well (robotic research applications for space). </p>

<p>The person to contact about the Master’s degree is Dr. Gupta
