Engineering Applications – Robotics

Inspired by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission, this robotics course challenges students to design, build, and justify a robotic system under real-world constraints. Students learn not just how to build robots, but how engineers think—balancing budgets, managing risk, learning from failure, and communicating technical ideas. The course emphasizes problem-solving, resilience, and collaboration, culminating in a mission-style final challenge that mirrors how real space missions are designed and executed.

Do not take this course if you plan to attend NuVu.
