Master of Science in Engineering in
Robotics and Intelligent Systems
Overview
The Master of Science in Engineering in Robotics and Intelligent Systems [MSc(Eng)(RIS)] prepares students for careers in robotics, automation, and intelligent systems through an interdisciplinary curriculum that integrates mechanical engineering, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and system design. Students build a strong foundation in robot modelling, sensing, planning, control, intelligence, and system integration, while tailoring their studies through electives such as Human-Robot Interaction, Autonomous Vehicles, Healthcare Robotics, and Machine Learning. Extensive hands-on training, industry-driven capstone projects, and networking opportunities with leading academics and industry professionals enable students to gain practical experience and develop innovative solutions to real-world challenges in the rapidly evolving robotics sector.
*Students may have the opportunity to complete approximately one-third of the curriculum at the HKU Zhangjiang Base in Shanghai, offering a distinctive cross-border learning experience, subject to further announcement.
