Abstract

This paper presents the robotics curriculum that was developed and is currently offered in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at the University of Central Florida (UCF). The curriculum retains many features of typical robotics curricula, such as being multidisciplinary, hands-on, and integrated. It also has several unique features, including a contemporary focus and a means of updating its contents and teaching a variety of topics. It represents one way of developing a curriculum on autonomous and intelligent robotic systems. As measured by the reactions from students and local industry, its implementation has been successful.
