Abstract
There is a growing need of experts in the field of robotics, as well as of proper educational resources to train them. In this paper, we present a review of educational resources that are available in different formats on-line. We focus on material that is thought for undergraduate or graduate students and we divide introductory courses from more advanced ones, with a special focus on Human-centred Robotics courses.
This work was supported by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 780073 - INBOTS (Inclusive Robotics for a Better Society).
