AI touches nearly every industry everywhere.
It’s radically changing the way we interact with each other, process data and make decisions – and it’s evolving every day.
From commerce to healthcare, AgriTech to government, gaming to finance – innovators in computer science and AI are often at the forefront of new technological developments and already creating the solutions of tomorrow.
This degree gives you those core foundations in algorithm design, problem solving and practical programming, alongside specialist AI skills in machine learning, neural networks, and big data processing.
This integrated Masters also gives you an extra year to advance your skills, taking on a group project and choosing from a range of industry-relevant optional modules across everything from robotics to data science and bio-inspired computing.
With AI transforming industries across the globe, this degree will help answer that demand and open the doors to exciting opportunities in this rapidly growing field.
Student profile: Ashley Oldershaw
“I learned so much and I've got some really useful skills - I hadn't done much programming before I started, but now, I've worked on some great projects. For my first-year programming project, I made a game called 'The Cave'. It's a bit like Pac-Man but a little more sinister”
Ashley Oldershaw, Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) MEng, BSc
