About this course

Computer science and artificial intelligence together represent one of the most significant intellectual and technological developments of our time. Computer science provides the theoretical and practical foundations: algorithms, data structures, programming languages, software systems, computer architecture and the mathematical underpinnings of computation. Artificial intelligence extends these foundations into the study of systems that exhibit intelligent behaviour, including machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, knowledge representation and autonomous decision-making. Understanding both the science of computing and the principles behind AI gives you a powerful and future-oriented set of skills. At the University of Sussex, this four-year full-time programme includes both a foundation year and an industrial placement year, which together make it a particularl
