Masterstudiengang Robotik

Johns Hopkins University’s broad interdisciplinary approach to robotics research makes it uniquely situated to offer such a comprehensive program. The Laboratory for Computational Sensing and Robotics (LCSR), with its reputation as one of the top robotics research sites in the world, particularly in the area of medical robotics, is pleased to offer this M.S.E. in Robotics

Academic Policies

• Course Grade Requirement: A course is satisfactorily completed if a grade from A+ to B‐ is obtained. Up to one C+, C, or C‐ can be counted toward the degree requirements. A grade of D or F or a second grade below B- results in probation. A second D or F, or a third grade below B- typically results in termination from the program. Any exceptions are rare and must be approved in writing by both the student’s advisor and the Director of Education.
• Transfer Courses: Standard WSE policy and limitations on M.S.E. transfer credits apply (https://engineering.jhu.edu/graduate-studies/academic-policies-procedures-graduate/). In addition, use of each transfer course toward satisfaction of a specific Robotics M.S.E. degree requirement must be approved in writing by both the student’s faculty advisor and the Robotics M.S.E. Curriculum Committee.
• Double Counting: Standard WSE policy and limitations on double counting apply (https://engineering.jhu.edu/graduate-studies/academic-policies-procedures-graduate/).
• Duration: Students must complete degree within 5 years from matriculation in the M.S.E. program. An university-approved leave of absence does not count toward this limit.
• Graduate Research Courses: No more than one 1-semester or 3 credits of a graduate research course (e.g., EN.620.801 Robotics MSE Graduate Research) may be counted toward one class in the course-option degree requirements.
• WSE Engineering Management Courses: Two (2) 1.5 credit hour courses taken for credit (i.e. a letter grade) may count towards one class of the MSE degree elective requirements if they are pre-approved in writing by the student’s academic advisor.
• No more than 2 WSE Engineering for Professionals (EP) Courses may count toward the M.S.E. degree elective requirements. All EP courses must be approved in writing by the student’s faculty advisor.
• Residency Requirement: Minimum residency of two full-time academic semesters at WSE (note that summer and intersession terms do not count towards this requirement).
• Academic Ethics, Responsible Conduct of Research, Laboratory Safety: all Robotics M.S.E. students must pass the WSE Academic Ethics course and complete at least the online Responsible Conduct of Research Course. Students conducting research may have additional in-person responsible conduct of research course requirements, as well as will be required to meet laboratory safety training requirements.
