Credit: 1.0 | Prerequisite: Algebra I
This course is an introduction to working with computer-controlled devices and software development. Through implementation of the design process, students will transfer advanced academic skills to component designs in a project-based environment. Students will build prototypes or use simulation software to assess their designs. Integrating sensors for closed
feedback loops and automated decision making is emphasized. Additionally, students explore career opportunities, employer expectations, and educational needs in the robotic and automation industry. Additional fees apply per semester.
