BSc (Hons) Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence)

Studying AI will allow you to help shape the future, revolutionise industries, and solve complex problems. It's a thrilling journey into the heart of innovation, offering the chance to positively impact society through technology and creativity. 

Our BSc in Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) is designed to create robust and practical systems. We don't just teach how to use the latest tools and techniques but focus on empowering students to develop the next generation of software tools used by other system builders. The course strikes a balance between theoretical knowledge and practical experience, heavily influenced by the research expertise of our academic staff. 

In your third year, you will engage in a year-long group project, collaborating to solve real-world problems. In the fourth year, you will pursue an extensive individual dissertation project. 

The Artificial Intelligence specialisation involves selecting specific courses from the final year options (two out of Biologically Inspired Computation, Data Mining and Machine Learning, Intelligent Robotics) and creating a final year project cantered around an approved AI topic.

Job Opportunity Potential

The market for graduates having artificial intelligence skills must grow with the increasing demands from companies, public sector organisations and research institutions for employees with skills in specialist areas with clear applications in industry - including data mining, machine learning, and pattern recognition. We envisage graduates from this BSc programme getting jobs with software houses, IT companies, research and development divisions of companies, financial services organisations, defence contractors or government IT departments and as researchers or research students within universities. Dubai is diversifying away from an oil economy towards the emerging knowledge economy, and a BSc in Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) is just the kind of specialist IT education provision that Dubai city planners are looking for to provide the next generation of knowledge workers here.

PSW Opportunity

After completion of their studies, students can change their study visa to work visa to extend their stay in Dubai.
