Thank you for your reply. Wow thats nice. My undergrad major is electronic engineering so I am definitely more comfy with the hardware side of things. So is the robotics program more hardware oriented? To be honest, I did not like the fact that most schools in the US deal with robotics primarily through computing and CS (I mean theoretical aspects like OS, kernals etc etc, programming I am quite happy with) is well out of my comfort zone. I thought so from the reading the course descriptions but I dont really know more than the website tells me. Anyways, thanks for your input. I have made up my mind to join Georgia Tech in the fall.
