Admissions

Application information, including deadlines and the online application for the M.S.E. in Robotics program can be accessed at www.cis.upenn.edu/grad/applications.shtml

Academic Preparation

Applicants to the M.S.E. in Robotics Program should have academic backgrounds in either computer science, mechanical engineering, or electrical engineering.  Due to the cross-departmental nature of the M.S.E. degree, we expect that successful applicants entering the program will have the right background for performing very well in the Foundational Courses. Therefore, potential applicants are encouraged to look at the prerequisites of the Foundational Courses, and ensure that their undergraduate studies have sufficient addressed them. In particular, sufficient exposure to courses in Linear Algebra (for CIS 580), Signals and Systems (for ESE 505), and Probability (for CIS 520) will be useful. Applicants who are not exposed to all the above prerequisites, may strengthen their background before taking the corresponding Foundational Course.
