Actually, Carnegie Mellon University has been the home to the first Robotics PhD program in the world for over a decade. Their program is designed around skill sets from the mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science programs, and easily satisfies the “interdisciplinary” definition.

Thanks very much Dave for that information. My statement was based solely on the information provided by GT.

HHmmm. I might have to think about this as a graduate program. Methinks this is in direct response to the Mechatronics degree at Southern Polytechnic which is not far away. http://advancement.spsu.edu/pub_rel/Mechatronics-CnstEng.html

WPI claims to have the first robotics degree.

The WPI program is for a B.S. not PhD.
