ACSE has enabled me to look at everyday objects differently and given me a view towards solving the problems of the future.

Jake Roskilly ACSE student, Mechatronic and Robotic Engineering MEng

I joined the Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering (ACSE) in 2015 and am currently in my final year of study on the Mechatronic and Robotic Engineering MEng. It has provided me with insight into the physical dynamics of a range of systems from biological to digital.
