Ready to meet the future head-on? From self-driving cars to chess-playing computers, artificial intelligence is shaping our world. Explore the science of machine learning with our Cambridge-based course and be at the forefront of technological innovation. Designed to fill a skills gap and meet a growing need for talented graduates, our AI degree is supported by the Intel AI Academy and offers a placement year, drawing on links with Cambridge high tech hub companies such as Cambridge Spark and Amazon.
Artificial Intelligence, the computer emulation of human thinking, has been identified by the UK Government as the first of its four Grand Challenges to keep the UK at the forefront of technological innovation and industrial development.
AI is an ever-evolving subject area that requires you to remain aware of constant changes and developments, as well as current issues that AI faces.
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 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'll also have access to Intel’s AI Academy, an online data processing resource. You will learn the history of Artificial Intelligence, systems needed to underpin AI and the advanced algorithms it employs, using up-to-date technology including software packages and hardware infrastructure.
Through this course you will gain the knowledge needed to display good professional judgement and responsibility in addressing commercial, environmental and ethical factors found in the various areas where AI is used.
If you enjoy mathematics and want to apply these fundamentals in a practical way – combining them with programming, computer systems and software design to create practical solutions to everyday technological issues – Artificial Intelligence is the subject for you.
This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partly meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer. Some employers recruit preferentially from accredited degrees, and an accredited degree is likely to be recognised by other countries that are signatories to international accords.
