Unscrewed Autonomous Systems Program Description |
The objective of the bachelor’s degree program in Uncrewed and Autonomous Systems is to prepare students for <br>administration, operations, and development work with uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) and small-uncrewed aircraft systems across a wide range of industries. Putting an emphasis on the air domain, the program also covers uncrewed and robotic systems in the space, ground, and maritime domains. <br>With continually updated curriculum focused on the evolution of drones and robotics, students will learn how uncrewed systems are being deployed – and that we have only just begun to explore the full potential of the technology. Students examine major challenges, such as interoperability, autonomy and robotics, airspace integration, communications, education and training, propulsion and power, teaming, and regulation. |
