I plan to move toward programming and robotics for my career, and I’m now planning to join the Air Force to help with my education. I’m just wondering which Air Force specialties would allow me to focus on these fields.
Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, structural disposition, manufacture and application of robots. Robotics is related to the sciences of electronics, engineering, mechanics mechatronics, and software

Robotics Short Story
The word robotics was derived from the word robot, which was introduced to the public by Czech writer Karel Čapek in his play R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots), which premiered in 1921.
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word robotics was first used in print by Isaac Asimov, in his science fiction short story "Liar!", published in May 1941 in Astounding Science Fiction. Asimov was unaware that he was coining the term; since the science and technology of electrical devices is electronics, he assumed robotics already referred to the science and technology of robots. In some of Asimov's other works, he states that the first use of the word robotics was in his short story Runaround (Astounding Science Fiction, March 1942). However, the word robotics appears in "Liar!"

Admin. Let me explain.
If you take a desk job, Mon – Fri, 8 – 5, you can get all your college electives out of the way at the Ed Center on base. In four year, you punch and go to college on the GI Bill.
You could ask a recruiter if they have jobs in robotics, but I’m betting they contract out for the type of work you’re looking for.
Possibly something to do with the Predator or other remotely piloted vehicles. Either piloting it or maintaining it, depending on where your interests lie.
The Air Force is not into robotics, as such. There are some jobs that may have remote sensing, or radio controlled command vehicles, but robotics…ummmm not really. If there are “some” robotic” devices used, they are few and far between and it’s very difficult to get those jobs. That applies pretty much to the whole of the military. Go to college first if you can.
