Course summary
Artificial Intelligence is an exciting and world-changing subject with applications and impact that can affect the day to day lives of billions of people. From human-like AI bots that can understand our language to provide support and information instantly, to autonomous robots and software agents that can perform repetitive or hazardous tasks in both the physical and digital worlds. Artificial Intelligence is built around a backbone of Computer Science topics, combining problem solving skills, practical approaches like programming and domain specific expertise such as predictive modelling and natural language processing. On this course you will benefit from our more than 50 years of experience in teaching Computer Science. You will learn how to combine a diverse set of skills from a variety of topics into real-world applications through our industry focussed curriculum, and benefit from a fully BCS accredited course to graduate with CITP status (subject to application and approval from BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT). You will study topics such as computer programming, web technologies, databases, software development, as well as a variety of exciting and specialised topics in artificial intelligence, machine learning, natural language processing, intelligent systems and more. Our degree course will challenge you to apply these topics to meaningful real world problems, helping you to launch your future career through practical experience and the knowledge that industry is demanding. Professional Accreditation The BSc (Hons) in Computer Science is accredited by BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered IT Professional.
Modules
Foundation Year: Foundation Mathematics 1 (core) Foundation Mathematics 2 (core) Foundation Mechanics (core) Foundation Physics (core) Fundamentals of Materials (core) Information and Communication Technology (core)
Assessment method
Most modules use a mixture of formal lectures, practical lab sessions, tutorials and seminars. Some modules involve supervised group work, usually with an assigned academic staff member for each group. All modules require students to undertake independent study, supported through distance learning technologies such as our Virtual Learning Environment. Reading lists and suggested resources for independent study provide further direction for students to undertake this work, and regular contact hours and informal feedback throughout the courses provide opportunities for further guidance for learners. Assessments for modules mostly take the form of practical coursework, lab tests and written exams, with all forms being well represented throughout all years of the course across all modules
