UAT special topics course offerings vary each semester, but here’s a preview of some of the innovative classes you can look forward to enrolling in soon! From building autonomous robotic software to developing groundbreaking prototypes, there's something for everyone eager to dive in and get hands-on experience. Check out the complete list of course offerings via [UAT’s catalog](https://www.uat.edu/uat-catalogs). **DBM150: *Introduction to Maker Studio* **provides students entry-level knowledge of the most common maker equipment needed to create props and functional prototypes. This course provides a framework for non-Digital Maker and Fabrication majors to learn the tools, techniques, and technologies needed to create their own prototypes in order to bring their ideas to life. Introduction to Maker Studio allows designers from any of UAT’s programs the chance to craft physical forms with the swiftness necessary in a rapidly evolving market, so that they can evolve their visions toward real-world applications. **RBT347: *Robot Navigation*** tasks students with designing and building software to create an autonomous mobile robotic platform. The design process will implement real-world environment considerations. Student creations will also have a clearly defined level of autonomy which takes into consideration factors such as asynchronous events and sensory input. Performance requirements will be clearly outlined within course objectives, including components such as appropriate architecture selection and other thoughtful design considerations. Related topics, such as data structures used in the implementation of intelligent machines, will also be considered and studied as a part of the course curriculum. **DBM215: *Prototyping Tools and Practices*** introduces students to the in-depth art and science of the prototype — and, in turn, explores the key steps of the engineering design process. Students will learn how to properly define and address a problem and will identify the solution whether that is a product, a service, or something else entirely. The course curriculum will lead students through the development cycle of compiling market research, building a prototype, testing, learning, and repeating the cycle again. Case studies examining the humble beginnings and vast evolutions of famous, world-changing products will be reviewed. **Course offerings vary by semester* **Embark on Your Academic Adventure at UAT** *Did these fresh course offerings ignite your interest in UAT?
