There is a surging global demand for numerate and skilled AI scientists with the fundamental skills and practical expertise needed to excel in this rapidly evolving field. We can help you meet this need and launch your career. Our MSc Artificial Intelligence has been designed by leading academics and industry professionals to deliver cutting-edge material that will be of great value to any employer.

What to expect Explore the key themes of AI, from its historical context to the critical technologies that are shaping our world today. You’ll learn Python, an essential programming language for AI, and acquire a strong grasp of the statistical methods that underpin machine learning. You’ll also gain an understanding of the power of neural networks and deep learning technologies, including the types of challenges they can address. Practical exercises will reinforce your learning, culminating in the development of operational AI solutions coded in Python. Ethical considerations and sustainability will be integral to your studies, ensuring that you are prepared to create AI solutions that are responsible and impactful.
Building on these foundations, you will select optional modules that allow you to tailor your studies to your career aspirations. This is where you’ll explore the major application areas of AI and develop the practical skills in planning, developing and managing the computing platforms needed for large-scale AI operations, preparing you to lead AI projects in any setting.
Over the summer, you will complete a 14-week project, often in collaboration with an industry partner, or by working with one of our leading researchers based in our AI community. This is an opportunity to design and implement an AI solution, culminating in a poster conference where you will present your findings.
