Learn advanced robotics.

“I like to think of the courses I took during my Master’s as falling into two buckets: those that built a solid foundation of concepts, and those that allowed me to apply those concepts in practical settings. To build a foundation, I enrolled in courses such as CIS 5800: Machine Perception, ESE 6500: Learning in Robotics, ESE 5460: Principles of Deep Learning, MEAM 5200: Introduction to Robotics, and MEAM 6200: Advanced Robotics. The overlap between the topics covered in these various classes also allowed me to understand the same concepts from different viewpoints, which helped make the concepts clearer [...] To get practical knowledge, I took some project-based and application-focused courses such as MEAM 5100: Design of Mechatronic Systems, ESE 6150: F1-tenth Autonomous Racing, and CIS 6800: Advanced Machine Perception. These courses focused on implementation of a combination of relevant concepts in various domains, which helped reinforce the topics I learned in other classes.”
