That's a pretty big jump but doable, depending on what you want to do. Just wanting to move a robot arm doesn't involve a ton of math or anything hard beyond basically trigonometry. There's pretty good software for that and things like driving robots and mapping that help a lot (ROS or the Robots plugin for Grasshopper are great). It's best to have a real goal like a small robot arm that you're trying to program to do a task, or a little driving robot you want to get to drive from A to B. That will help you with some scaffolding to hang further learning on. Good luck!
