THE RIGHT PLACE FOR ROBOTICS
The Space Robotics Laboratory suite encompasses a laboratory, classroom and breakout areas that are used for undergraduate classes and projects, faculty research and as a home for the VEX Robotics Team and the Eagle Robotics Club. The classroom serves as a lecture space and features electronic test benches and a mobile robot test table. The lab contains tools, fabrication equipment, electronic test equipment, a motion capture system, a host of robotic manipulators and an air-bearing table for testing planar space robots. The research breakout room is used by students completing their senior capstone projects as well as faculty and students working on robotics research.
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
Students in the Mechanical Engineering program at the Prescott Campus are empowered to explore air and space propulsion, energy and robotics.
Along with a basis in engineering fundamentals, the program also gives students the opportunity to learn more about controls, machine design and numerical modeling. This degree program prepares students to embrace the lightning speed of innovation in these fields while encouraging them to think independently and contribute their own ideas. By their second semester on campus, students will begin focusing on the different tracks offered in robotics, propulsion and energy, learning to design planetary rovers, jet engines and renewable energy sources — all key skills for the future.
Being part of this cutting-edge degree program also provides access to state-of-the-art labs on campus that are designated solely for undergraduate research. The B.S. in Mechanical Engineering builds on the success of Embry-Riddle’s highly acclaimed Aerospace Engineering program, so students benefit from the same resources and professional networking opportunities. Students will integrate their knowledge into a robotics, propulsion or energy capstone design project in their senior year — or choose an aircraft or spacecraft design project by collaborating with fellow students in the Aerospace Engineering major.
