Robotics Process Automation: The Virtual Assistant Kanwaljeet Singh, Prof. Christian BachAbstract – The Robots have long time presence in the manufacturing industry. In today’s Worldthey are helping small to big companies to reduce their operational cost. And they are not limitedto manufacturing industry only. These days, Robots are part of every organization from banking,finance, communication, electronics, engineering, healthcare, and technology. Companies candeploy them based on their needs or requirements and they can do very simple to complex tasks.Especially, in the finance industry, Robots are helping to perform simple tasks of bookingjournal entries to reconciling bank accounts

However,those who responded with this comment, typically taught courses that did not necessarily createor provide knowledge or skills required for further success in the major. However, with the casestudy course, this is a core pre-requisite for two majors (Civil and Mechanical). This makes thiscourse a crucial first step in the students’ academic path at the University.With this in mind, the course schedule changed only slightly due to the week offstudents/instructors received to prepare for the online transition.
