MSc Artificial Intelligence for Engineering

Want to change direction? Switch careers? Upskill?

This fast-track Masters is for you. Taught in our £4.5 million Centre of Excellence for Data Science, Artificial Intelligence and Modelling (DAIM), our MSc offers a fast-track to career success in this dynamic field. Engineering is being increasingly married up with data analytics and driven by artificial intelligence.

In this MSc, you will learn how to enhance the command and control of engineering systems in order to optimize them and be a part of the fourth industrial revolution. Understanding how to analyse, validate and interpret data to inform decision-making are key skills in just about every walk of life. Nationally, there is a widely recognised shortage of qualified Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data scientists to meet the needs of industry.

This course will equip you with the skills and professional insight needed to launch a career in this fast-growing sector. The programme will cover topics such as, programming, statistics, machine learning, data visualisation and computer vision and the ethical and legal responsibilities of using data. This engineering variant will include bespoke modules covering deep reinforcement learning, data-driven control with real-world engineering challenges and numerical methods for engineering.

In the third semester, you will have the opportunity to choose or design your own research project in a disciplinary area which may relate to your background or career goals. Alternatively, there may also be opportunity to undertake a project working with an industry partner.
