Course Description

Our Artificial Intelligence MSc stands apart as the sole programme of its kind in the UK. It is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of artificial intelligence (AI) by incorporating a wide range of core topics. On this programme, you will study:

  • Technical subjects, such as computer vision, natural language processing and audio analysis, to develop strong technical expertise
  • Application-specific areas, such as health and the metaverse, to ensure you develop specialised knowledge in emerging AI fields
  • Regulatory and legal aspects of AI, to equip you with a critical understanding of the ethical and legal considerations that will shape the future of AI.

The growth of AI is rapidly changing the way we live, work and learn. However, there’s a real shortage of AI talent worldwide, both to serve the industry and to drive future research.
