Teaching
Modern Robot Control Architectures, robot design, learning methods and biological basis for autonomous robots: The courses for the University Robotics Group and the DFKI Robotics Innovation Center, headed by Prof. Dr. Frank Kirchner revolve around robotics. They are aimed at students of the University of Bremen from the fields of computer science, systems engineering, electrical engineering and information technology.
We also supervise bachelor's and master's theses, advanced topics we announce regularly online. For our staff, students and graduates, we offer special seminars. The PhD students seminar will be held in the form of Brown Bag Talks.

Impressions from the Robot Design Lab
Robot Design Lab: Studying computer science creates opportunities to shape our future world
Robot design and control architectures, machine learning methods and human-centered interaction with robots – the Robotics Group at Faculty 3 of the University of Bremen together with the DFKI Robotics Innovation Center offer courses from the basics to the most advanced concepts in robotics. Robot Design Lab is an introductory course. Here students learn about the software and hardware architecture of robots. Autonomous navigation concepts are applied on TurtleBot robots, which are able to traverse mazes and detect geometrical shapes in the environment.
