Course summary

This online MSc in Artificial Intelligence is ideal if you are motivated by the challenges and infinite possibilities of advancing AI. It is designed to give professionals from computer science – as well as a host of other disciplines – the opportunity to specialise in AI and meet the increasing demand for experts in this exciting, future-focused, and rapidly growing specialism. At the forefront of human progress In recent years, Artificial Intelligence is significantly more closely connected with human progress and societal change. It calls on new and powerful data algorithms to ensure that intelligent machines work in closer collaboration with us than ever before. AI is evolving at a rapid pace. It has a broad application across a variety of business functions, including marketing and policymaking, finance, and healthcare. This online MSc also addresses the ethical implications of advancing machine intelligence, and related issues around transparency and accountability. These are factors that have previously been overlooked by many in the rush to extend the possibilities of technology. • 7th for student experience for computer science in the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2022* • Top 10 in the UK for Computer Science by the Complete University Guide 2023* • Top 10 for course satisfaction in computer science and information systems by The Guardian University Guide 2022* Forge a future in AI In order to help you to take advantage of a wide range of future career opportunities, the online MSc in Artificial Intelligence contains a broad range of practical subjects, such as programming, data science and robotics. This enables a comprehensive understanding of AI and its application in the real world.
