WOULD YOU LIKE TO DEVELOP SOFTWARE THAT CAN REASON AND ACT INTELLIGENTLY?

The next generation of industrial-strength software applications will need the ability to make effective intelligent decisions.


A degree in Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence from City combines an education in computing with a focus on the principles, design and development of intelligent computer systems.

Our degree in Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence offers:

While at City, you will become knowledgeable in a variety of computing and AI technologies and develop the ability to apply this knowledge in an industrial context. You will learn commercially valuable technical and transferable skills, develop software in teams, and work with our successful AI research teams.

The focus on intelligent systems is provided by coverage that introduces the basic AI concepts of knowledge repressentation and search, how logic underpins this, and the application of this to aareas such as planning and expert systems. The AI programming language Prolog is also covered.

Nature-inspired methods that use metaphors from the human brain (neural networks), and biological evolution (genetic algorithms) are taught directly from City's research. In addition, the concepts and tools behind how software agents can be built that can learn, react and act independently is covered, again drawn from City's research in this area.

As a Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence graduate, your specialist expertise and ability to devise innovative AI-based solutions to complex problems will be in high demand. Your degree will prepare you for a career as a technical specialist in either business or industrial research laboratories or for research degrees, such as a PhD.

This degree is suitable for you if:

This degree is available as a three-year full-time course, or four years with either a one-year placement or our Professional Pathway scheme.
