Robotics & Automation

Students working with robotics and automation equipment in the GLTS lab

Program Description

Where engineering and innovation collide, the Robotics & Automation program trains students to build, program, and control the machines of the future. Through hands-on experience with robotic programming, mechanical systems, and electronic circuits, students learn to design and troubleshoot high-tech automation solutions.

From operating programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and using CAD software to wiring electronic systems and working with pneumatics, students develop a strong technical foundation. Engaging, project-based learning allows them to apply their knowledge to cutting-edge automation and robotics challenges. Whether pursuing careers in industrial maintenance, automation engineering, or robotics technology, graduates are equipped with the skills and problem-solving mindset to lead in a rapidly advancing field.
