Advanced bio-robotics
Objectives of the class
Research fields that are not bounded by conventional academic disciplines are collectively called interdisciplinary fields. In this lecture, several interdisciplinary research areas related to robotics are reviewed. Through this lecture, we will learn the difference between science and engineering and robotics as an integrated engineering. Ultimately, the goal is to gain an understanding of the various approaches to research and to develop a diverse perspective and sense for research.
Key words for the class
