MSc Applied Artificial Intelligence Project year
Course overview
This master's degree course has its main concern on the practical application of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which includes machine learning and robotics, to solve real-life engineering problems and other industries. The course is built for those interested in learning about the potential uses of AI and applying this knowledge to solve problems innovatively.
The programme offers an option of two-year full-time study, including an extended professional project or placement year, giving students quality industry experience. Performances are checked through coursework, and the final Research Dissertation module is replaced by the Project or Placement module if students choose the two-year route.
