What's Special
Thanks to Hollywood, most of us think of human-like machines when we think of robots. But in industry, a robot is a duplicate of the human arm, capable of completing repetitive tasks without taking coffee breaks! It is run by a computer, and people with the skills to program and maintain that robot are in demand. We'll teach you how at Georgian College, as you explore the field of automation in our industrial scale labs.
