This BCS (British Computer Society)-accredited course will equip students with highly sought-after computer science and Artificial Intelligence (AI) skills, enabling them to immerse themselves in the fascinating arena of machine intelligence.
Artificial Intelligence is arguably one of the most rapidly growing and exciting fields of technological development of this generation with far-reaching potential to solve present day problems - and to transform the world around us.
The Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence is a computing degree that allows students to specialise in the exiting field of artificial intelligence (AI), the science of mimicking human intelligence using computers. The program contains broad coverage of all major computer science topics as well as specialist modules in artificial intelligence, taught by world-leading experts. The department's research constantly feeds into the teaching curriculum meaning students will learn cutting edge techniques of this fascinating topic.
The first two years of the course are identical to those of the Computer Science Bachelor of Science degree and provide sound foundations for the third year when topics such as robotics, intelligent agents, reasoning in uncertain systems, computer vision, neural networks and deep learning are studied to an advanced level via specialised modules as well as a final year project. Other third year options, taught by experts in their respective areas, allow students to study other computing subjects in greater depth and to learn about the latest developments in established and emerging areas in the field.
