Why This Programme Matters

  • Gain strong foundations in programming, algorithms, databases and computer systems.
  • Explore machine learning, neural networks, robotics and intelligent adaptive systems.
  • Learn how intelligent agents can reason, plan, cooperate and respond to uncertainty.
  • Apply AI techniques to practical problems and real-world datasets.
  • Develop experience with software architecture and large-scale programming.
  • Examine the legal, ethical, social and professional responsibilities associated with AI.
  • Graduate with a degree accredited by BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT.

Artificial intelligence is changing how organisations analyse information, automate processes, personalise services and solve complex problems. Creating effective AI systems requires more than knowing how to use an algorithm. Professionals must understand data, programming, software architecture, human needs and the consequences of automated decisions.

The BSc (Hons) Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) combines core computing knowledge with focused study in machine learning, intelligent systems, robotics and social intelligence. You will apply theory through programming exercises, practical laboratory work, team assignments and an individual AI project.
