Courses
Calling all experimenters, builders and creative thinkers. Computer engineering at Edge Hill is your chance to explore a whole host of areas or specialise in robotics, artificial intelligence or systems automation.
Edge Hill is home to a £13m Tech Hub. Here you’ll learn in our 3D Computer Augmented Virtual Environment and experiment in specialist labs with robots, e-pucks and Arduinos. With great industry links, you’ll meet employers like AO and Bentley Motors at our careers fair, and secure placements with top companies.
- Everything you learn is relevant to industry and you’ll work on real world projects. Our students programmed Robbie the Robot to help care for people with dementia through AI.
- Learn from a teaching team carrying out vital research for international projects. One example is their work improving the safety of self-driving cars by programming them to recognise driver distraction.
- Develop your expertise in our £13m Tech Hub. Here you’ll find our 3D Computer Augmented Virtual Environment and specialist labs with robots, e-pucks and Arduinos.
