Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence

This undergraduate program in Artificial Intelligence at City University Ajman, formerly known as City University College of Ajman, covers the branch of computer science focused on building systems capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as recognising patterns, understanding language, making decisions and learning from experience. Artificial intelligence draws on mathematics, statistics, computer science and cognitive science to design algorithms that can process information, adapt to new data and improve their performance over time, with machine learning forming a central part of how modern AI systems are built and trained. Coursework in programs of this kind typically includes programming fundamentals, discrete mathematics, algorithms and data structures, machine learning, neural networks, natural language processing, computer vision and the ethical questions raised by deploying intelligent systems in society. Students generally gain hands-on experience through programming projects that involve building and training models, working with datasets and evaluating how well a given system performs on a task. As artificial intelligence techniques spread across nearly every industry, coursework often extends into applied areas such as robotics, recommendation systems, automated decision-making tools and data-driven applications used in business and government. Graduates of artificial intelligence programs pursue careers as machine learning engineers, software developers specialising in AI systems, data analysts, research assistants and technical consultants, working across technology companies, finance, healthcare and other sectors that increasingly rely on intelligent systems. The degree also provides a foundation for postgraduate study in artificial intelligence, computer science or data science for students who wish to specialise further. The program is delivered in English at City University Ajman, in the emirate of Ajman, within the United Arab Emirates, a country actively encouraging the adoption of artificial intelligence technologies. The program is accredited by the UAE Commission for Academic Accreditation.
