Master Automatique, Robotique

At Université d'Orléans, tuition fees are 292 USD per year.

Universite d'Orleans, in Orleans Cedex 2, France, offers a Master Automatique, Robotique, a two-year master's degree in automation and robotics, taught in French with a September intake and yearly tuition of 250 EUR. This discipline covers the design and control of automated systems and robots, combining principles from electrical engineering, mechanics, and computer science. Typical coursework includes control theory, which addresses how systems are regulated to behave predictably and reliably, signal processing, embedded systems programming, and robotics fundamentals such as kinematics, actuators, and sensor integration. Students learn to design control systems for machines and processes, work with programmable logic controllers and embedded electronics, and apply mathematical modeling to predict and manage system behavior under varying conditions. Robotics components of such programs typically address mechanical design, motion planning, and the integration of sensors and software needed for robots to perceive and act within their environment. Laboratory and project work are common features of automation and robotics training, since building, programming, and testing physical or simulated systems is central to demonstrating mastery of control and robotics principles. Students often work on projects that involve designing a control system or robotic application from specification through testing, mirroring the practical demands of industrial automation work. Graduates from this field pursue careers as automation engineers, robotics engineers, and control systems designers within manufacturing, energy, transportation, and industrial equipment sectors. Others move into research and development roles focused on advancing robotics or automation technology, including areas such as autonomous systems and industrial process automation. The field remains in steady demand across manufacturing and industrial sectors, given ongoing investment in automated production and robotic systems across France and Europe.
