The "Mechatronics and Robotics" course (module I of the Industrial 
Automation and Mechatronics course) is aimed at furnishing concepts and 
skills for understanding and modelling mechatronic systems and 
industrial robots as well as competences gained with practical and lab activities on how to simulate and program 
them.
Topics:
- Introduction to Mechatronics and Robotics
- Overview of industrial and service robotics
