Course summary

The study of natural and artificial intelligent and adaptive systems is at the heart of rapidly developing areas. These range from artificial intelligence and autonomous robotics to neuroscience, consciousness and cognitive science. This MSc prepares you for research and development in intelligent and adaptive systems. You'll cover theoretical issues and practical techniques for their design and implementation. You can choose to organise your studies around one of these areas:

  • artificial intelligence and cognitive modelling
  • robotics and autonomous systems
  • data science, machine learning and natural language processing
  • computational biology and consciousness science.
You’ll learn from experts at the forefront of their fields. We host the Evolutionary and Adaptive Systems Research Group, the Data Science Research Group and the Sackler Centre for Consciousness Science. We also have many successful business collaborations. To help you gain experience and increase your employability, you can apply for an optional placement as part of your course. This can be a fantastic opportunity to gain real-life insight into industry as well as skills valued by employers.

Modules

We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2023/24.

We’ll make sure to let our applicants know of material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity. Core modules are taken by all students on the course. They give you a solid grounding in your chosen subject and prepare you to explore the topics that interest you most.

  • Mathematics and Computational Methods for Complex Systems
  • Adaptive Systems
  • Machine Learning
  • MSc Individual Project
  • Industrial Placement Year
Alongside your core modules, you can choose options to broaden your horizons and tailor your course to your interests. View the course page on our website to see examples of optional modules we offer.

Entry requirements
