robotics

Robotics is a field of engineering that deal with design and application of robots and the use of computer for their manipulation and processing. Robots are used in industries for speeding up the manufacturing process. They are also used in the field of nuclear science, sea-exploration, servicing of transmission electric signals, designing of bio-medical equipments etc. Robotics requires the application of computer integrated manufacturing, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, biological mechanics, software engineering and the like.

Followings are the branchs of Robotics engineering in which one can specialise:-

Artificial Intelligence.
Computer Aided Manufacturing.
Computational Geometry.
Robot Motion Planning.
Digital Electronics and Micro-processors.
Robot Manipulators.

In India there is no robotics in under graduate level,you have to go for M.tech.
Only mechanical,elctrical,computer and electronics engineers are eligible for persuing M.tech in robotics.

The premier institute in Robotics is The Center for Robotics and Mechatronics at IIT (Indian Institute of Technology), Kanpur which offers a Master's Degree Course in Robotics.Admission is through valid GATE score.

The Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering & Computer Science Departments of the IIT's offer courses in Computer Science with specialization in Artificial Intelligence, which is an integral part of Robotics.

Mainly following Institutes in India offers courses in Robotics:-
Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh
National Institute of Technology, the University of Hyderabad- M.Tech in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics
Jadavpur University, Kolkata
Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani
Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning, Prasanthinilayam, Tamil Nadu- M.Tech
