What will I learn with an unmanned autonomous systems minor?

Unmanned autonomous systems (UAS) are high-tech, intelligent machines capable of traveling by air, land, or sea without a human crew on board. Thanks to advanced computing, sensing, and electronic technologies and mechanical design, UAS are versatile machines able to maneuver in diverse, and sometimes dangerous, environments. UAS can go into the heart of a storm or a spreading wildfire to monitor threats to human lives and property or travel through remote areas to gather environmental data. Other applications of UAS include mapping and data collection, hazardous waste inspection, search and rescue and entertainment.

Learning outcomes

The emerging UAS industry requires highly-educated individuals who understand the fundamentals in terms of design, engineering, operations, and interpreting related data. To this end, the objective of the interdisciplinary minor in unmanned autonomous systems is to provide students with the skills and experiences that will help them better apply the knowledge gained in their majors to specialized problems in the field of UAS.

Why choose unmanned autonomous systems?

Emerging UAS technology is affordable, giving small businesses and individuals the opportunity to customize it for a seemingly endless variety of applications. Nevada offers a unique opportunity for both students and industry interested in investing in UAS, with a history of supporting UAS initiatives and a number of civilian and military resources for research and development.

Mechanical engineering

Self-healing plastic. Night-vision contact lenses. It seems like the stuff of science fiction, but it's reality for materials scientists and engineers, who study the relationship between a material's atomic structure and its physical properties. These engineers learn to manipulate materials at the atomic level to create new ones that are lighter, stronger or more flexible than their predecessors.
