About the course
Artificial intelligence deals with the theory, design, application, and development of biologically, socially and linguistically motivated computational paradigms
You focus on linking artificial intelligence techniques to real-world applications and projects, including artificial intelligence in business and financial applications, artificial intelligence in games, artificial intelligence in biological sciences and medicine, and artificial intelligence in industrial control
Our unique course covers the theoretical, applied and practical aspects of artificial intelligence, with an emphasis on:
Genetic algorithms
Evolutionary programming
Fuzzy systems
Neural networks
Connectionist systems
Hybrid intelligent systems
Our School is a community of scholars leading the way in technological research and development
Today’s computer scientists are creative people who are focused and committed, yet restless and experimental
We are home to many of the world’s top scientists, and our work is driven by creativity and imagination as well as technical excellence
We are ranked Top 10 in the UK in the 2015 Academic Ranking of World Universities, with more than two-thirds of our research rated ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent (REF 2014)
This course is also available on a part-time basis
Professional accreditation
This degree is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET)
This accreditation is increasingly sought by employers, and provides the first stage towards eventual professional registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng)

Course programme
Postgraduate study is the chance to take your education to the next level. The combination of compulsory and optional modules means our courses help you develop extensive knowledge in your chosen discipline, whilst providing plenty of freedom to pursue your own interests. Our research-led teaching is continually evolving to address the latest challenges and breakthroughs in the field, therefore to ensure your course is as relevant and up-to-date as possible your core module structure may be subject to change.
For many of our courses you’ll have a wide range of optional modules to choose from – those listed in this example structure are, in many instances, just a selection of those available. Our Programme Specification gives more detail about the structure available to our current postgraduate students, including details of all optional modules.
