Why did you choose Cranfield?

The AVDC course is a good gateway into the world of Autonomous platforms. It covers all the required knowledge to design, model and control a remote intelligent vehicle for a variety of applications. The final thesis gives you the opportunity to gather all the acquired skills and apply them to a single project. Though I personally worked on multi-UAV control, the thesis can focus on anything from satellite image processing to underwater vehicle control as long as it highlights the need of an autonomous behaviour. Most projects also demand some hardware testing in order to apply your findings to a real life scenario.

Owen Connor, Control and Navigation Engineer

"Cranfield is a different kind of university. Its postgraduate-only make-up, and close connections with industry give the university a range of experiences, backgrounds and expertise which other universities are unable to match. I would recommend AVDC and the course to anyone."
