In this webinar, the programme lead will provide a comprehensive overview of the degree, including who it’s designed for and how it supports students from a range of engineering and technical backgrounds. You’ll learn how the programme is structured, as well as practical details such as campus locations and start dates. 

This webinar will be hosted by Dr Henry Williams. A robotics researcher specialising in machine learning and reinforcement learning, he earned his BE and PhD from Victoria University of Wellington. He has led pioneering agricultural robotics projects, including autonomous harvesting and pollination systems. Now leading the Robot Learning Team at the University of Auckland, he advances adaptive robotics and directs the Master of Robotics and Automation Engineering programme. He will be joined by two current students of the programme.  

You’ll also hear from current students and graduates about their experiences of the programme, including their undergraduate backgrounds, research projects and where their studies have taken them. 

This post-graduate degree opens opportunities across automation engineering, automation design engineering, mechatronics engineering, and robotics engineering. More employers now recognise the need for skilled people who understand the best use of technologies and their added value, so career possibilities in this field are growing across many industries.   

Join us to gain a real insight into postgraduate study and discover how this Master’s can open doors to new possibilities.
