Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics are increasingly being deployed to solve complex problems and to automate business processes. Thus, knowledge and understanding of algorithms that drive AI and robotics systems, as well as practical skills to implement such systems, are much sought-after within many sectors of the economy. Students who are keen to develop their professional and technical skills in developing autonomous solutions for rewarding career opportunities in a range of industry sectors will find this course highly relevant and stimulating.
Students on this two-year undergraduate degree programme will be trained on fundamental theories and concepts, key techniques, approaches, methodologies and tools of software development, artificial intelligence and robotics. In particular, this pathway is designed to provide students with the practical skills required to implement AI, machine learning and robotics based autonomous digital and technology solutions for various sectors such as automobile, agriculture, education, healthcare, law enforcement, public services, transport, and utilities.
This fast-tracked programme prepares students to work in dynamic and agile organisations or to pursue postgraduate education. Our small-group teaching and learning environment supported by personal tutors offer students a personalised learning experience to achieve their full potential. Learning is enriched through collaborative projects, co-curricular activities and seminars by guest speakers from industry. Opportunities for professional skills development are offered throughout the degree programme. Students are encouraged to be innovative and enterprising whilst considering ethical, sustainability, diversity and inclusivity issues.
