Studying Artificial Intelligence at postgraduate level is an exciting and hands-on opportunity to explore how computing and machinery are completely changing the landscape of business as we know it.

Designed by our academic experts and industry specialists this degree will help you develop a deep understanding of how to work collaboratively in this dynamic and fast evolving branch of computer science. From business intelligence to robotics and machine learning to AI there are plenty of avenues that will be open to you with our postgraduate qualification.

What will I study?

Our MSc in Artificial Intelligence is designed to help you to develop the technical skills and knowhow that many companies are looking for in an AI specialist.

Youll study areas such as machine learning and artificial neural networks, data analysis, expert and fuzzy systems, which underpin AI systems development. However, this course also has its roots firmly in the field of computer science so you will also implement artificially intelligent machines, whether these are in the form of knowledge-based systems, intelligent agents or robots. In addition, throughout the course you will be encouraged to adopt recognised software engineering principles, which form the foundations of system development. We will also make sure that you have plenty of opportunity to put professional and ethical practices into action, including the appropriate adoption of software engineering principles.

The programme is distinctive in that as well as providing students with a strong theoretical background in AI, it also includes a significant practical element so students will learn to use a range of AI-related tools and professional development platforms. Furthermore, you are given the opportunity to understand and consider the role of AI in the wider, social context as well from the point of view of potential employers.
