Understand the fundamental principles of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. This specialist Artificial Intelligence Masters/MSc programme will allow students to apply their knowledge to real problems.
The past ten years have seen astonishing advances in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning that are promising to transfer the way to interpret and use data. These advances are already finding their way into daily lives in areas that include automated language translation, speech recognition and generation, recommender systems, face identification and other applications that people may not even be aware of. It is also allowing people to think about the nature of intelligence from different perspectives to understand the way that humans perform tasks, and to augment and support abilities in areas such as medical diagnostics, where AI techniques are beginning to be used to filter vast medical datasets to provide doctors with new insights that can be used to inform a diagnosis or treatment plan.
On this programme, students will learn about the fundamental principles of AI and ML and how machines can perceive, explore, and understand the world. Students will extend and apply their knowledge to real problems in a substantial individual project working with one of the University of Birmingham's world-leading researchers, many of whom are working closely with the Alan Turing Institute, the UK national institute for AI and Data Science, of which the University of Birmingham is a member. Students will learn about what current generation AIs can and cannot do, about contemporary challenges, and about societal and ethical considerations so that they can make informed decisions about how AI techniques should be used in the real world.
Students will study a range of compulsory modules and be able to choose from a variety of optional modules, whilst also undertaking an Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Project.
