Robotics in Oxford

Machines are thinking for themselves…

Are you intrigued by the rapid advance of machine learning? Do you want to understand exactly how algorithms and engineering can solve (and perhaps, create) society’s problems? Studying Robotics takes you to the edge of human knowledge, not just about technology, but about what it is to be human. You’ll be invited to examine the technical processes behind the creation of artificial intelligence systems and mobile robots, while critically examining the ethics of such processes and the dilemmas we are currently facing, or may have to reckon with in the future.

It is researchers at Oxford University who are at the frontier of development in this field, experimenting with how Robotics could transform different areas of our lives, be it space flight or sports and you will have a chance to learn from and debate with those very people.

From age 16 to 24, our Oxford robotics summer courses are designed specifically to fit your level of experience.

Our Tutors

Oxford attracts many Robotics experts to work in its exceptional laboratories and our tutors are among them.

You're learning will be individualised and challenging throughout the course. You will have seminar-style classes, in which you are invited to participate in group discussions based on the material you are taught. This lays the groundwork for independent study, which will allow you to take your new learning in the direction of your interests. You will then bring this research and work to a tutorial session, where you're work will be critiqued and improved by an expert in the field.

The tutorial system is famous for its personal approach that means you are able to learn quickly and pursue topics specifically of interest to you - an incredible opportunity.

Why not mix it up a little?

Are you torn between two subjects, or undecided on which city to study in? The good news is that you can often combine two subjects, or even split your studies between different UK locations.

"The favourite thing about my subject was that for the first time I felt like I was challenged, coming from a person who has taken Computer Science for 3 years in school (at GCSE and A Levels), which was kind of exciting and intimidating at the same time."

"After finishing the course, I feel as if I have not only learnt more on this topic but also understood how important it is in our everyday life. We explored different parts of computer science such as Hardwares, Software engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Game designing etc."

"I was a shy person before coming on the courses but asking and answering questions in tutorials has improved my confidence immensely – the tutors were always happy to answer any question, however silly it may have seemed, and the course staff were always so friendly, on hand to answer any questions about the course, or the teaching system in Oxford in general."
