Robotics Universities: MIT, CMU, Georgia Tech, Utah

In summary, there are several universities in the US that have strong programs and research in robotics, including MIT, CMU, Georgia Tech, and Utah. Other notable universities include the University of Arizona, Caltech, and Stanford. Monash University in Australia also has a strong robotics program, specifically the Institute of Robotics and Intelligent Systems. There is also a distinction between Real World Computing and robotics, with Stanford offering a specialization in robotics within their Master of Science in Computer Science degree.

I know of 4 universities in the US that deal heavily with Robotics.

MIT
CMU
Georgia Tech
Utah

Do you guys know of any other computer science departments that deal heavily with robotics? Say for instance, they have 3 or more researchers working in robotics.

Robotics? Carnegie Mellon's the best out there :) If you have questions about CMU in particular, feel free to PM me, I'm an undergrad there and I'm doing a summer intern at the Robotics Institute there.

University of Arizona and Caltech have robotics programs I think.

Just on a away from US note:

Monash University has good faculty and research projects i think

Check out IRRC at Monash. I know for a fact that A.Prof RA Russell is doing some good work on there
