Did you know that congress passed a bill that by 2025, 1/3 of all combat vehicles will be unmanned? Autonomous systems are the future of the Navy. Systems Engineering is the ideal major to learn about Autonomous Systems. In fact we have two entire classes dedicated to the topic: Mobile Robot Design and Autonomous Vehicles. We bring together our knowledge of sensors, mechanical design and robotics to build some really cool projects!
