UC Riverside’s Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering now offers a Master of Science degree in robotics, the first and only one of its kind in the University of California system. Applications for fall 2021 admission are due by July 15 for international students, and by Sept. 1 for domestic students.
The master’s in Robotics provides interdisciplinary training in the design, construction, and deployment of robots and autonomous systems. Students will learn the foundational principles underlying mechanical and electronic aspects of robot design, control and navigation of robots, and artificial intelligence required for robots to perceive their surroundings and make decisions.

As officials across the world work to establish AI ethics codes, Amit Roy Choudhury argues that Singapore’s system provides a model for others at a time when common global standards are emerging
Governments around the world are rushing to formulate risk- and rules-based approaches to ensuring transparent and fair use of artificial intelligence (AI). Both Scotland and Brazil have recently launched AI strategies, while last week the European Commission published its draft regulations for AI.
Ethics must be applied to the design, development and use of AI to ensure that outcomes are explainable and not subject to unintended bias, says Dr Chong Yoke Sin, president of the Singapore Computer Society (SCS). “AI is only useful when applied ethically, and users and developers must remain aware of this,” she says.
