MEng Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence)
About this course
Computer science with artificial intelligence is a degree that positions you at the frontier of one of the most consequential technological developments of our time. AI is transforming how software is built, how decisions are made, and how organisations operate across every sector of the economy. Understanding it requires a firm grounding in computer science fundamentals, from algorithms and data structures to software engineering and systems, alongside specialist knowledge of the machine learning, neural network, and data processing techniques that underpin modern AI systems. At the University of Hull, this four-year full-time programme gives you the knowledge and skills to participate in and contribute to the AI-driven future. You will study programming, algorithms, computer architecture, databases, and software development alongside machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and the ethical and societal dimensions of AI. The four-year structure gives you the time to develop genuine depth in both the computer science foundations and the AI specialisation, rather than touching each at a surface level. Hull's computing department has a strong emphasis on applied and project-based learning, and you will work on substantive projects throughout the degree. You will develop the ability to design and implement AI systems, to evaluate their performance and limitations, and to engage critically with the ethical questions that arise when AI is deployed in real-world contexts. These capabilities are increasingly central to technical and product roles in the technology sector. Graduates are well positioned for roles in software engineering, AI and machine learning engineering, data science, research, and a growing range of other technical roles where AI expertise is valued. The shortage of qualified AI practitioners means that graduates with this background are in high demand across industries. Postgraduate study in computer science, AI, or data science is an option for those wishing to develop specialist research or engineering expertise.
