Hey,

The field of Robotics is dynamic and has lost of arms like designing, maintenance, functional and programming. Professionals in this subject are required by the military, medical and automobile industries. The demand for robotics engineers is rising in India. There is a variety of opportunities. Not only do they get into research but also in the manufacturing line for the organisation they are working. Their initial salary starts from Rs 5-6 Lakhs per annum. Job Aspects are there in these fields:

• Gaming Industry
• Space Research
• Investigation and Intelligence agencies.
• Banking
• Medicine

Good Luck.

Robotics engineers are required to have at least bachelor's degrees for entry-level jobs in the field, according to the BLS. 

They typically hold degrees in mechanical engineering or related engineering specialities, though degrees in physical science and mathematics may also qualify robotics engineering for employment.

Hello Rohan,

Yes both Robotics and Automation are very good field but u have to be adaptive and headstrong at the same time for the desired results.here are some basic difference between Robotics and Automation.

Automation — Automation means using computer software, machines or other technology to carry out a task which would otherwise be done by a human worker. There are many types of automation, ranging from the fully mechanical to the fully virtual, and from the very simple to the mind-blowingly complex.

Robotics — Robotics is a branch of engineering which incorporates multiple disciplines to design, build, program and use robotic machines.

Advantages of being a Robotics/Automation Engineer:

A highly paid and respectable job.

Both the government and the private sector give a lot of benefits to retain their skilled workforce.

Most Robotics/Automation engineers are employed in laboratories, space exploration, manufacturing plants, mining and organizations.

Disadvantages of being a Robotics/Automation Engineer:

Though highly paid, the work is very demanding but there are limited opportunities.

The job requires long hours of work.

Good luck.

Hello Raheem!

Automation and Robotics Engineers are highly needed in the future for excelling the development level of our nation and world.

Though the branch is new to Industry, the scope is average.

But if you are good in that and you are interested as well then you can earn very high after pursuing this course.

Hope that helps!

• MIT WPU introduced this branch of engineering just last year. All the students who are a part of this course are just completing their First year of engineering.
• As you might be knowing, FYBTech is a common year for all engineering students with no specialized subjects. So basically none of the students have actually got the full experience of robotics engineering here as yet.

• That being said, MIT WPU is Known for hosting ROBOCON INDIA (a robotics competition at national level) every year since 2005. And has also won many events. So it has a very strong robotics background. The University of has always supported Robotics.It has just introduced a new course that's the only difference.
• Placements at MIT has always been good so i don't think it would be different for Robotics too.

hello ashutosh pagrotra,

As hard work is necessory in any type of work you are doing , all what need is dedication, there is a scope in robotics as there are only fewer firms for robotis. so you need to do a lot of hardwork to achieve success. i hope you understand.

so all the best have a great future ahead.
