Some years ago, we people were used to see robots on silver screen only. That time, we only knew that robot is one instrument, which is used to clean a place or car. But, now the time has changed. Scientists around the world are focusing on robotics engineering. Robotics is the branch of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and computer science that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. Bachelor's and master's degree programs in robotics engineering teach students how to develop and construct robotic devices for a variety of commercial, manufacturing and security purposes. Both undergraduate and graduate degree programs combine elements of electrical engineering, computer science and mechanical engineering.

Applicants to bachelor's programs need a strong high school background in math and the sciences. Students in bachelor's and master's programs focus heavily on mathematical foundations, engineering theories and practical implementation and testing of robotic devices; bachelor's programs also include a substantial amount of lab work. Master's programs usually culminate in a final robotics project, along with a thesis paper.

Lack of manpower in today's time has increased the demand of robots. Building, configuring, and testing robots; Designing software systems to control their robotic systems, such as those robots used for manufacturing; and Designing automated robotic systems that are used to increase the production and precision levels within a specific industry are the various career opportunities for Robotic Engineers.
