Third year BSc student in Electrical Engineering! Possibility to apply to a BIP-course “ROS in Embedded Design for Mobile Robots”

Apply to take part in a BIP-course at Wroclaw Tech, Poland, in February 2026! This hands-on program brings together students from universities across Europe to explore the design and implementation of embedded systems in the context of mobile robotics.

This BIP is designed for late Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering i.e. you need to be in your third year of studies. The program consists of two complementary parts: a virtual and an on-site component. More details on the .
The virtual component consists of a series of online lectures introducing the key topics of the course. The online lectures will take place between 26.1. and 8.2.2026 (exact schedule tba). Topics:

  • Simulation as a tool for system development - Jorge Barreiros, ISEC Coimbra
    Getting Started with ROS 2 - Janusz Jakubiak, PWr Wrocław
    Introduction to micro-ROS - Thomas Herpoel, HELHa Mons
    Localization techniques for mobile robots - Sérgio Correia, IPP Portalegre
    Programming Embedded Platforms for Robotics - Fernanda Coutinho, ISEC Coimbra

The on-site component will take place at Wrocław University of Science and Technology from 16.-20.02.2026. There, you will apply the knowledge gained during the lectures through practical workshops covering the following topics:

  • Programming hardware interfaces in embedded systems
    Practical development of ROS system
    Localization and navigation of mobile robots
    Implementation of micro-ROS-based robot controller

Students will earn 3 ECTS credits upon completion. Aalto selects and nominates only students that are eligible for Erasmus+ short-term mobilities. For this course, 1-2 students can receive the short-term grant. If the credits do not fit into your degree, you are not eligible to apply. Please check that you meet the requirements for a short-term blended mobility grant. If more applicants than places, students are selected according to GPA. If you are interested, please contact outgoing-elec@aalto.fi on 25.11.2025 at the very latest.
