I am specialising in Dynamics, Systems and Controls at University of Florida. I am interested In Robotics. I am a mechanical engineer, but I dont know what role a mechanical engineer plays in Robotics. What topics should I concentrate on in Studies? I am unable to study any electroics. Being a mech engineer, how can I contribute?

There are plenty of opprotunites for ME's, particularly those with strong working knowledge of Denavit-Hartenberg parameters and the mathematics involved. Also, robotics is often an exercise in mechanical optimization for load, moment, inertias, etc.
