Bachelor in Artificial Intelligence BSc (Hons)

If you have a strong interest in how computers can learn, reason and act, and you already have a solid foundation in mathematics and programming from A-levels, a T-level or a BTEC, this three-year BSc (Hons) in Artificial Intelligence will build on that base.

During the programme you will spend each week in hands-on labs developing machine-learning models, coding neural-network architectures and analysing large data sets. You will also undertake a 48-week optional placement, work on industry-linked projects and complete a final-year project where you design and deploy an AI solution.

The course covers core computer-science fundamentals, AI principles, deep learning, natural-language processing, robotics, ethics and MLOps, and is aligned with BCS professional standards. Graduates can enter roles in technology, healthcare, finance or manufacturing where AI expertise is in high demand.
