Don't Just Watch the Future Automate. Engineer It. 

Fascination with smart machines is a start, but building the blueprint for the next generation of automation relies on one unified discipline: Robotics Engineering. As autonomous platforms, smart factories and advanced logistics infrastructure continue to transform industries, it takes more than a basic coding background to lead the field: It takes specialized technical innovators. 

NJIT’s Robotics Engineering program combines the critical science of mechanical and electronic systems with advanced computing and control. You won’t just learn how algorithms function, you will learn how to design, build and integrate the complete physical platforms driven by them.

Our program delivers a streamlined, 120-credit curriculum with project-based learning that prepares you to enter the field when we welcome our first class in Fall 2027.
