BSc (Hons) in Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence

The Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence at the University of Nottingham Malaysia (UNM) is an innovative programme designed to prepare students for the rapidly evolving field of AI and computing. Accredited by the British Computer Society (BCS) and the Chartered Institute for IT, this degree meets the academic requirements for Incorporated Engineer and partially for Chartered Engineer status. Students will build a strong foundation in computer science while specialising in cutting-edge AI topics, including machine learning, neural networks, deep learning, and transformers, reflecting the latest trends in the field. Through extensive practical training and an individual dissertation on an active AI problem, students will develop problem-solving, teamwork, communication, and analytical thinking skills. Graduates are equipped to excel in careers spanning AI, software engineering, and data analytics, supported by world-class teaching and research.

All candidates are considered on an individual basis and we accept a broad range of qualifications – A Level BBC, including Mathematics at grade B, excluding Critical Thinking and General Studies, IB Diploma - 26 points, including either Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches (HL) or Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation (HL) with a score of 5 points, STPM - BBC+, including Mathematics at grade B; excluding Pengajian Am, UEC - 5 B3s, including Mathematics, excluding Bahasa Malaysia and Chinese Language, Australian Year 12 - ATAR 82.
