Abstract :
This paper details the development and implementation of three courses on autonomous robotics that are offered at the University of Washington. The three-course sequence is now in its fourth year. The structure of each course is discussed along with wisdom on what worked and what did not work. It is hoped that this paper is useful to others developing hands-on, creative courses in control systems and robotics.
