Course

Robotics is not about memorizing formulas — it’s about learning how to think, build, and adapt.

This course is designed to help you understand robotics as a system, not just a collection of parts. You’ll learn how hardware, software, sensing, control, and AI come together in real machines — and how to reason about robots even as technologies evolve.

Rather than following rigid tutorials, this course focuses on developing intuition, flexibility, and confidence. By the end, you’ll be able to look at an unfamiliar robot and understand how it works, how to modify it, and how to build your own.

What You'll Learn

  • Understand how modern robots are structured and why they are designed the way they are

  • Develop intuition for hardware, sensing, and control tradeoffs

  • Gain the confidence to experiment, debug, and learn independently

  • Be prepared to engage with real robotic systems in labs, startups, or research

This course is ideal for students, builders, founders, and curious minds who want to move from observing robots to truly understanding them.
