The University of Waterloo has mechanical, mechatronic, electrical, and systems design undergraduate engineering programs, among several others (all 5-year programs with mandatory co-op). Depending on your interests, you could make a concerted effort to "roboticize" one of those programs. However, to be realistic, it wouldn't be until your 4A and 4B terms (i.e. your fifth calendar year) that you'd even get an opportunity to do anything meaningful with robots (in your technical elective courses), in any of those programs.

It's more of a graduate thing, unfortunately.
