About the Department

The Undergraduate Programme B.E. Robotics and Automation started in the year 2019 .Industries need to equip themselves to compete globally in the face of digital manufacturing and Industry 4.0. To outperform competitors, manufacturing companies must reduce manufacturing costs and lead times by implementing new technologies. Automation plays a crucial role in achieving these goals across all stages of manufacturing. Robots are versatile, reprogrammable machines used in various fields such as material handling, welding, machine tool tending, palletization, de-palletizing, assembly, rescue operations, and surgery. The demand for industrial robots has increased significantly due to the trend toward automation and continuous technical advancements. The program in Robotics and Automation covers subjects such as automated system design, robot kinematics and dynamics, motion planning, artificial intelligence, machine vision, and industrial automation and control. These topics are essential for preparing students to design, implement, and manage automated systems effectively.

VisionVision

To become an ecosystem in the domain of Automation and Robotics that develops competent multidisciplinary professionals, researchers and entrepreneurs striving for technology led Socio- economic development of the nation.

VisionMission

HOD
Dr.S.Harikrishnan M.E., Ph.D.,

Professor and Head

It is grateful and pleasure of addressing Robotics and Automation. This department gives combines automation and robotics, is both fascinating and challenging. It has been years since we began a comprehensive departmental overhaul to bring the department up to the high requirements of the automation and robotics industries. The department has long been known for being a leader in prioritizing stakeholder involvement, which might have a positive impact on the business, provide it a competitive edge, and enable it to make the biggest impact on the globe. I wish good luck to students.
