Degree in Robotics Engineering

I have a lot of interest in robotics and have posted a bit on the subject before. Last month, at the Embedded Systems Conference, in Boston, I ran across a professor from Worcester Polytechnic Institute.

I wasn't familiar with the institution, but apparently it's been around since 1865. I don't think they had too many robots back then, but recently, they started offering a four-year "Robotics Engineering" degree program.

It would have to be a pretty interesting program, combining, mechanical, electrical and software. According to the professor I spoke with, this is the first four-year robotics engineering degree program in the nation. Very cool. Check it out.
