 pursuing a robotics career?
What major would be best for pursuing a robotics career? So I am really into robotics because it requires not just hands-on construction, but also programming. So what would be the best major for pursuing a career in robotics. I am thinking between mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science. I am definitely going to be taking computer science, but I am not sure whether it will be as a major or minor.

 Re: pursuing a robotics career?
In some schools, it is possible to do a double major. I did a double major on Electrical Engineering and Computer Science with my BS degree. If you have to favor one over the other, it really depends on which one interests you more.

 Re: pursuing a robotics career?
I met a student over the summer that told me that this program was the only one of its kind in the country. http://www.wpi.edu/academics/robotics/Not sure if that is true, but it seemed worth a look. Good luck,

Just FYI, WPI is a sponsor of FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC). They provide the robotics library code for the competition.
