If you truly want to learn, I suggest joining a local FRC Robotics team as a new/junior mentor. If you simply ask the students to show you what they have been working on, you may be inspired to join in and help. You'll learn together... mechanical, electrical, programming, etc.
A short overview of what FIRST robotics is:

I've been volunteering as a FIRST mentor for the last nine years and have learned more about robotics from the students than I did in my master's program or on my own.
- clownshoez 4y agoThanks for the resources Jon, although unfortunately I am in the UK. I will however investigate if there is something similar over here. If anyone else has information pertaining to how to begin working on small projects that would be great. Even just a list from the top of your head of things to learn in some chronological order.
