Advanced Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) MSc
With AI transforming many aspects of the way we live and work, from diagnosing health conditions and modelling climate change to detecting fraud and personalised learning, there has been a soaring demand for experts with these specialist skills. In response to this demand, we've created a new course that aligns with the rapidly evolving needs of industry. The MSc will equip you with an advanced understanding of computer science theory and practice through research-led teaching of both foundational and contemporary topics.
You will study four core modules in the areas of programming, artificial intelligence, algorithms, and research methods and ethics. These will be complemented by four further option modules based on the department’s cutting-edge research in areas such as reinforcement learning, AI and human systems, and vision, imaging and visualisation. The option modules are built around staff specialisms to ensure all content is current and relevant to industry.
