Bachelor in Robotics and Autonomous Systems Engineering

Tuition comes to 99,000 TRY per year.

Robotics and Autonomous Systems Engineering focuses on the design, control, and programming of machines capable of sensing their environment and acting with varying degrees of independence. Typical coursework includes mechanics, control systems, electronics, programming, sensors and actuators, and artificial intelligence methods such as machine learning and computer vision, combined with hands-on project work building and testing robotic systems. As students progress, they work on increasingly complex projects that integrate mechanical design, electronic hardware, and software control, learning to address challenges such as navigation, perception, and decision-making in autonomous systems. Graduates typically pursue careers in robotics development, automation engineering, manufacturing, aerospace, and technology research, with the degree also serving as preparation for graduate study in robotics or related engineering fields. This four-year bachelor's program is offered by Istanbul Technical University in Istanbul, Turkey, and is taught in English, allowing students to work with internationally shared technical standards and research literature in a field that draws on contributions from around the world. As an established technical university, Istanbul Technical University builds this program on strong foundations in mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering before introducing specialized coursework in robotics and autonomous systems. Istanbul's expanding technology and manufacturing sectors provide opportunities for internships and industry engagement relevant to robotics and automation. Across the four years of study, students combine theoretical coursework with laboratory and project work, developing the interdisciplinary skills in mechanics, electronics, and software needed to design and operate robotic and autonomous systems in industrial, research, and commercial settings.
