A Virtual Tour of WPI Robotics Engineering Research

Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) is the first university in the nation to offer BS through PhD degrees in robotics, a highly interdisciplinary field. With the first-of-its-kind bachelor’s degree in robotics engineering and one of the first such graduate programs in the USA and in the world, WPI is at the forefront of robotics education and research.

Our passion for robotics is evident in everything we do—we have a dedicated and enthusiastic faculty and staff along with strong industry connections; perform breakthrough research; provide hands-on work with robotic devices in our many state-of-the-art labs; prioritize space for experimentation; and foster competitive teams that routinely win national robotics awards. Our graduates leave well prepared to tackle the technical, social, cultural, and ethical challenges of a robotics workforce that remains dynamic and constantly changing.

In this video, Prof. Jing Xiao, Director of WPI's Robotics Engineering (RBE) Program, provides a virtual tour of WPI's robotics engineering research as an invited speaker for the special session, "Greater Boston Area Robotics and Mechatronics Research", in 2020 IEEE/ASME International Conference of Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM 2020).
