Program Overview

You will take specialist modules in arguably two of the most important emerging topics of computer science: artificial intelligence and security.

These are supplemented by an individual project in Artificial Intelligence, under the supervision of an academic member of staff.

• Master the practical skills and theoretical knowledge you need to develop AI-enhanced software solutions which address demanding user expectations and complex customer requirements.
• Explore the areas of artificial intelligence and security and learn how they continue to drive major changes in the domain of computer science.
• Learn the technical skills needed for a career in the computing industry. Upon successful completion, you may consider roles related to AI including AI expert, machine learning modeller, data scientist, human factor designer, Internet of Things programmer, or developer of autonomous cars.
