Just want to point out, this is a graduate course(although 1st year). Many students taking it are phd students, who at Michigan can do quite theoretical research. Its not uncommon to take graduate math and cs courses as an engineering phd at Michigan

Yes, I understood that from the 5 at the beginning. OK, so it is not a Masters but something directed to PhD students then?

I wouldn't say that, it is a mix of masters/phd. the robotics department is quite new, the overall curriculum is pretty rigorous mathematically, but also a lot of lab work.
this is more of a catch all to make sure everyone is able to handle the rest of the program, since depending on undergrad school and country, mathematical maturity seems to be a large spectrum for incoming robotics students
