AAS-ROBOTICS - Robotics, AAS

The WSU Tech Robotics program provides graduates with industry aligned courses designed to prepare them for entry into the highly technical field of Industrial and Collaborative Robotics. The program is a joint effort between WSU Tech and Wichita State Universitys National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR). All students will experience a core curriculum focused on the foundational skills of robotics including usage, programming, design for application and implementation of robotic equipment and automated equipment to support manufacturing automation in areas such as welding, advanced coatings, and material handling. Working with industry recognized visual programming environments and a state-of-the-art robotics laboratory, students will apply cutting edge robotics research and electronic and mechanical systems to support the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Students will gain the skills that support the design, build, implementation and data collection of IIoT using electronic sensors, small computer hardware and applications to collect, translate and deliver data to analytical business systems. Students will learn to program Programable Logic Controllers (PLC's), communicate between PLC's and robots, set up HMI's (human machine interface) to control and monitor the process, and even explore new advancements in Smart Factory environments such as machine learning and AI.
