Robotics has the potential to mitigate future labor shortages and drive economic growth, to supplement the efforts of caregivers for an aging population, to provide physical assistance to those with disabilities, and to actively engage those with cognitive to enhance learning, reasoning, and performing typical activities of daily living. The depth and breadth of IRIM breaks through disciplinary boundaries and allows for transformative research that transitions from theory to robustly deployed systems featuring next-generation robots. Fundamental research includes expertise in mechanics, control, perception, artificial intelligence and cognition, interaction, and systems. Georgia Tech offers an interdisciplinary path to an M.S. and Ph.D. in Robotics to students enrolled in a participating school within either the Colleges of Computing or Engineering. A fully integrated, multidisciplinary experience, the M.S. & Ph.D. programs include both coursework and research with faculty members in various units across campus.
