Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence and Data Science)

Develop a specialist understanding of the key conceptual and technological issues in artificial intelligence and data science computation.

Why study BSc Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence and Data Science)

• In this BSc Computer Science pathway, you'll develop and understand cutting-edge machine learning models, alongside their implications. You'll also get to grips with the theoretical underpinnings and implementation of machine learning.

• You'll develop key skills in applying datasets to a range of models including deep learning neural networks, and applying models to a range of divergent problems.

• You'll also explore the ethical and social implications of the deployment of machine learning models, and consider their limitations and validity.

• You'll learn how to extract useful information from large collections of data, using software mining techniques.

• The degree is hands-on and practical from the start. You'll be creating your own web and mobile applications, data visualisations, and games. You will explore your potential through these practical projects while learning relevant technical skills for your future career.

• In your third year, you'll have the opportunity to undertake a year-long industry placement (making this programme four years full-time, or eight years part-time). This gives you valuable experience to build confidence and contacts, further develop your skills and industry insight, and enhance your career prospects.
