Course Summary

Overview

From software agents used in networking systems to unmanned vehicles, intelligent systems are becoming integral to modern society – and demand is only going to grow across industries. That’s why many organisations worldwide are looking to skilled experts in AI to provide them with solutions that make their businesses more streamlined.

Our Advanced Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) MSc will equip you with specialist knowledge and a technical skill set in this fast-moving field whilst allowing you to explore a range of relevant topics in computer science.

You’ll gain a broad perspective on intelligent systems, covering evolutionary models, statistical and symbolic machine learning algorithms, qualitative reasoning, image processing, language understanding and bio-computation, as well as essential principles and practices in the design, implementation and usability of intelligent systems.

Studying in our?School of Computing?gives you access to a whole range of specialist facilities, whilst being taught by academics who are experts in their fields. We’re also responsible for producing internationally excellent research and have long-established links with industry meaning you’ll be learning the most up-to-date practices and techniques needed to pursue an exciting career in industry.

Career opportunities

Computing is an essential component of nearly every daily activity, from the collection and processing of information in business, through to smart systems embedded in devices, image processing in medical diagnosis and the middleware that underpins distributed technologies like cloud computing and the semantic web.

This programme will give you the practical skills to enter many areas of applied computing, working as application developers, system designers and evaluators. Links between the taught modules and our research provide our students with added strengths in artificial intelligence, intelligent systems, distributed systems, and the analysis of complex data. As a result, you’ll be well-prepared for a range of careers, as well as further research at PhD level.

Modules

On completion of this module, students should be able to: demonstrate an in-depth comprehension of the topics/issues relevant to the project; select and apply the appropriate research methods for their chosen project area; demonstrate independent application of the knowledge, methods and techniques that he or she has acquired during the MSc programme in producing a solution in the project.
