Overview
Advances in robotics technology continue to push the boundaries of what we previously thought possible. Our degrees equip students with the technical knowledge and project experience for a career as a robotics engineer.
Why study BEng/MEng Robotics at Middlesex University?
Robotics at Middlesex is available as either a three-year Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) and a four-year Master of Engineering (MEng).
The degrees produce professional and competent multi-disciplinary engineers who are specialists in the design and production of robotics products. You will focus on developing systems that control physical motion such as those found in robotic applications and industrial automation, using the latest industry hardware and software equipped in our labs and workshops.
To support your career success, you will build a professional portfolio of work throughout your degree and receive regular guest lectures and project feedback from industry professionals, with the option of spending a year on industry placement.
Flexible programme design
Our suite of Design Engineering courses share a common first year of study, which enable students to experience all aspects of engineering. Depending on your interests, you can then continue with the Robotics Engineering degree or transfer to one of these specialist honours programmes:
Design Engineering - Design and implementation of digital systems
Mechatronics - Design of electro-mechanical systems using computer control aspects
Electronic Engineering - Developing analogue and digital systems
Course highlights
You are encouraged to enter prestigious design engineering competitions to enhance your experience and career prospects
Our dedicated facilities in the new Ritterman Building open in Autumn 2016 and are equipped with industry standard equipment in robotics, electronics, mechatronics, and networking solutions
All the essential software needed to study the course is provided, including LabVIEW, SolidWorks and STEP-7
A year-long work placement is available as part of the course
You will extend your industry knowledge through our series of weekly guest lectures delivered by some of the UKs leading design experts and companies
If you apply for our four-year MEng course you will gain a masters qualification as soon as you successfully complete your undergraduate degree
Whichever pathway you choose, you can change to another after your first year. You can also change onto the main Design Engineering pathway after your second year if desired
As a student of this course you'll receive a free electronic textbook for every module.

Standard Qualification Requirements
Our entry requirements provide a guide to the qualifications that you’ll need to study our courses. We have a personalised admissions approach and we make fair but aspirational offers. We want you to aim high and achieve great results.
We understand that things have been very different at school and college since the pandemic started however and that you might be worried about what changes to exams in 2021 will mean for you.
We’ll always aim to be as flexible as possible and take into consideration any barriers you may have faced in your learning. So if you don’t quite get the grades you hoped, we’ll look at more than your qualifications like your achievements in other areas and your personal statement.
At Middlesex, we're proud of how we recognise potential in future students like you and how we can support you to succeed in the future.
