MSci Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence
About this course
Computer science with artificial intelligence is a degree for those who want to understand both the fundamental discipline of computing and the techniques that are now transforming how software is built and how organisations make decisions. Artificial intelligence has moved from research curiosity to practical reality in a remarkably short time, and the engineers and researchers who understand both the computational foundations and the specific methods of machine learning, natural language processing, and intelligent systems are among the most sought-after professionals in the current economy. At the University of Nottingham, this four-year full-time programme considers each candidate on an individual basis and accepts a broad range of qualifications. The degree includes a sandwich year, giving you the opportunity to work in a computing or AI-related role before your final year. A year abroad is also incorporated, and work placement is additionally available. These features mean that you graduate with substantial professional and international experience alongside deep technical training. You will study programming, algorithms, data structures, software engineering, and computer systems alongside machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, natural language processing, and the mathematical foundations that underpin them. Nottingham's research strengths in AI and computer science, combined with the professional experience from the sandwich year, create a programme that prepares you both intellectually and practically for a career in a rapidly evolving field. Graduates are well positioned for roles in software engineering, AI and machine learning, data science, research, technology companies, financial services, healthcare technology, and a growing range of industries where AI expertise is valued. Many pursue postgraduate study in computer science, AI, or data science to develop specialist research or engineering expertise.
