More than 20 billion microprocessors and microcontrollers are currently providing intelligent features, smart capabilities,
personalised interfaces, optimised communications to an incredibly wide range of devices. From automotive to healthcare, from
science and industry to social science and finance, embedded computing is at the very hearth of almost all modern digital
systems.
Explore the world of Embedded Computing and learn to employ Machine Learning methodologies to create market-ready
solutions with enhanced technologies to transform data into valuable information. Learn to combine hardware and software
components, making the most of powerful portable computing and advanced data-driven decision-making.
Our brand new degree course has been designed with employers and industry in mind, ensuring you are learning the
professional skills you will need once you graduate. You will be guided through the cutting-edge tools to learn trends and
behaviours from the data itself.
You will be provided with the knowledge and skills to develop as a specialist in the areas of data analysis, machine learning,
neural networks and artificial intelligence algorithm design. You will also gain the knowledge needed to display good
professional judgement and responsibility in addressing commercial, environmental and ethical factors found in the various
areas where Machine Learning and Automation are used.
If you enjoy computer science, mathematics and technology and want to apply these fundamentals in a practical way –
combining them with electronics, digital systems and software design to create practical solutions to everyday technological
issues, this BSc top-up year is the right course for you.
