Associate Professor & Head
Welcome to the Robotics and Autonomous Systems Department
The Department of Robotics and Autonomous Systems at PSG Institute of Technology and Applied Research (PSG iTech) has been established with a vision to prepare future-ready engineers who can lead the rapidly evolving world of intelligent technologies.
The emergence of intelligent technologies is transforming every aspect of modern life, creating unrivaled opportunities for innovation and societal progress. Robotics and Autonomous Systems have become the driving forces behind the cutting-edge technological advancement, influencing industries ranging from healthcare and manufacturing to agriculture, transportation, defense, and smart cities etc.. In response to this rapidly evolving landscape, our department has been established with a vision to nurture future-ready engineers, innovators, researchers, and entrepreneurs who can lead this transformation.
The B.E. Robotics and Artificial Intelligence programme at PSG iTech has been carefully designed to provide students with a strong foundation in engineering principles while equipping them with advanced knowledge in robotics, artificial intelligence. A distinctive feature of our programme is the early exposure to Robotics and AI through both theory and practical courses from the very first year. This unique approach enables students to develop technical competence, creativity, and hands-on skills at the beginning of their academic journey.
Our curriculum emphasizes the integration of Artificial Intelligence with robotic systems, often referred to as Physical AI. Students learn not only how to develop intelligent algorithms but also how to deploy them in real-world robotic platforms that interact with the physical environment. Through experiential learning, interdisciplinary projects, research activities, innovation challenges, and industry collaborations, students gain the ability to transform ideas into impactful solutions.
At PSG iTech, we believe that technology must be developed with responsibility, ethics, and sustainability at its core. Therefore, alongside technical excellence, we emphasize professional integrity, social responsibility, leadership, and entrepreneurial thinking. Our goal is to empower students to become competent professionals capable of addressing complex global challenges and contributing meaningfully to society.
As we embark on this exciting journey, I invite aspiring students, industry partners, researchers, and stakeholders to join us in building a vibrant ecosystem of innovation and excellence in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence. Together, we can shape intelligent technologies that create a smarter, safer, and more sustainable future.
