BSc Artificial Intelligence and Robotics
About this course
BSc (Hons) in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, an automotive engineering degree focused on the intersection of automated machinery, computational intelligence and mechanical design. Core topics include Programming, Research Methods, Project Management, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. The course is fully accredited by the British Computer Society (BSC), the Chartered Institute for IT. The first year covers foundational principles through Engineering mathematics, Mathematics and concepts for computational thinking, Robot principles and design, and Principles of programming and data structures. The second year progresses to Concepts and technologies of artificial intelligence, Information security, Desktop applications development and software engineering, and Robot intelligent control. The final year involves Advanced robotics, Agile project management, Research methodologies and emerging technologies, and a compulsory Undergraduate project completed independently.
