MSci Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) with a Year in Industry
Looking for an integrated masters course that will set you apart from other computer science undergraduates and set you on course for a high-level career? This five-year MSci course offers a thorough grounding in computer science and allows you to specialise in artificial intelligence, as well as gaining hands-on skills and experience during a coveted year in industry. You will also have the chance to select some courses from our postgraduate MSc courses and to showcase your abilities in an extended final year project. It is particularly recommended if you want to progress to postgraduate study or a specialist career in artificial intelligence or related fields.
AI is one of the most exciting and rapidly developing aspects of 21st century technology. On this course you will learn from leading researchers in the field, covering topics such as computer learning, intelligent agents, neural networks, bioinformatics, information security and computational finance, and benefit from access to our internationally renowned Computer Learning Research Centre. All this will be underpinned by a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of computing and the essentials of application development, from programming to software engineering, databases to web development, computer graphics to robotics. From the outset you be experimenting with programming games, robots, Gadgeteer kits, Subversion, JUnit testing, Scrum-based Agile software and more, in our well-equipped laboratories. Our progressive curriculum has been developed in consultation with industry, with a modular structure that gives you the flexibility to tailor your degree to your own interests.
We are a highly respected, research-focused department with a friendly approach and award-winning teaching. We offer a summer work placement course and a dedicated personal adviser to guide you through your studies. You will also be welcome to join our thriving Computing Society. We are proud to be among the few departments in the UK to hold the Athena SWAN bronze award for our commitment to increasing female participation in computer science. We are also ideally located in the famous M4 corridor and enjoy close links with many of its leading technology companies. If you are unable to complete your year in industry you will have the option of transferring onto our four-year integrated masters course.
