Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Programmes in BSc (Hons) in Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence
Apply
This Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence programme builds on a common first two years with Computer Science and follows with a third year dedicated to Artificial Intelligence (AI).
The programme has several key themes centered on computational thinking, which instills the ability to develop and understand algorithmic solutions to problems. This is backed up by practical skills in programming that are developed in a variety of relevant languages chosen to complement each other and to demonstrate the spectrum of techniques and tools available. Students will learn how to apply these skills in Artificial Intelligence and learn cutting edge techniques such as neural networks and deep learning. Students will also learn about the underlying architecture that supports computation, both the traditional computer and the new cloud-based computation infrastructure which has become increasingly prevalent. The programme includes a key theme of data science where students work with (potentially very large) datasets, learning appropriate data storage techniques and suitable software and statistical methods for data processing and analysis. This will include modern algorithms for machine learning which are revolutionizing this field and driving recent advances in Artificial Intelligence.
Why enrol on this programme?
Students will learn how to use skills acquired in the programme in developing an entire software product using Artificial Intelligence, including modern tools used in industry such as version control and automated unit testing. Methodologies and design techniques which support the development of such products and related ethical, social and legal issues will also be taught. This programme will equip students with important degree level transferable skills which encompass both group and individual work, time management, written and verbal presentations and critical reflection on their work.
The programme is designed to produce graduates with the technical and transferable skills needed in a wide range of careers and industries; whether these are established computer science domains such as software development and database maintenance, or emerging ones influenced by the growing use of Artificial Intelligence.
Accreditation
The EAU award is recognised by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), Dubai. Students who complete the programme have the option of obtaining a Coventry University certificate in addition to Emirates Aviation University award.
Duration
- Full-time programme is three years
Mode of delivery
Full-time, and semester-based.
