Description
The programme is available with an industrial placement, which lengthens the programme by one year. This allows you to put the knowledge learned on the programme into practice in a real world situation, and gives you a head start in the competitive job market.
The first two years provide a solid foundation in core areas of Computer Science, and introduce some of the fundamental Artificial Intelligence (AI) concepts. The third and fourth year lead to a gradual specialisation in your areas of interest, allowing you to obtain a deeper knowledge of selected AI and other Computer Science topics through a large range of options. These usually represent the research areas of our world-leading research staff and so provide a picture of the latest achievements in the field. The same is valid for your individual final-year project.
A Masters programme such as this provides you the benefit of an extra year of study with us (as compared with a Bachelors programme), allowing you to study more topics at a deeper level, thus connecting you with the state-of-the-art in your selected study areas.
