Construction has begun on a $9 million space for students to create innovative robotics and autonomous systems, and learn the skills to be leaders in the robotics industry.
For more information, contact RASTIC Director Kenn Sebesta, PhD at (617) 353-2800 or kenn@bu.edu.
Boston University won a competitive award and recognition as a top robotics school in the state. The prize money is being used to build RASTIC.
“We recognize the critical need to build cutting-edge facilities informed by our deep partnership with industry. Doing so ensures that our graduates have the skills and experiences they need to thrive.”
- Provost ad interim Kenneth Lutchen
The center is specifically designed for masters-level robotics programs, and to complement undergraduate capstone courses and research-oriented labs, like the Robotics Laboratory.
RASTIC will magnify opportunities to advance technologies in high-demand areas, including sustainable agricultural systems, human-robot interactions and so much more.
