Robots are an essential part of assembly lines in automated industrial mass production. In the last years, so called
lightweight robots that can be safely operated near humans without physical barriers have become broadly available.
Recent progress in the field of artificial intelligence renders using cognitive cobots for partial automation in small
enterprises or as service robots at home feasible. A growing demand for experts who can design, install, and
maintain such systems in various application domains is, hence, to be expected.
The Institute for Computer Science at Bayreuth University is offering the certificate program “Robotics and
Automation” to provide students with formal proof of qualification in these areas. Associated courses cover the field
comprehensively by addressing the foundations of robotics, perception and planning methods for intelligent systems,
and simulation-based planning of production systems. Theoretical knowledge can be consolidated in practical
courses with topics matching the certificate qualification goals.
