Artificial intelligence underpins some of the most complex and critical technologies in use today. Our Artificial Intelligence MSc is designed for graduates with a background in computer science or relevant professional experience who want to develop advanced, specialist expertise in this rapidly evolving field. You will explore how intelligent systems are designed, implemented and evaluated, gaining a deep understanding of the principles and computational techniques that enable machines to learn, reason and make decisions. The course brings together data-driven approaches such as machine learning, deep learning and generative AI with knowledge-based techniques including automated reasoning, planning, knowledge representation and intelligent control. This integrated approach enables you to understand not only how AI systems achieve performance, but how their decisions are structured, interpreted, justified and trusted. Throughout the course, you will develop the ability to select appropriate AI methods for complex real-world problems, critically assess their performance and limitations, and implement robust solutions using contemporary AI frameworks and programming languages such as Python and MATLAB. You will also engage with key issues around interpretability, explainability, ethics and responsible AI. A substantial individual project allows you to apply your knowledge to a realistic research or development challenge, preparing you for advanced professional roles in AI or for doctoral study. We also offer this course as a part-time Distance Learning route.
