Course Description
The artificial intelligence industry is fast-growing and touches so many aspects of society, from business operations to our everyday lives. On this course you will gain a detailed understanding of artificial intelligence concepts and techniques and learn to use this knowledge to address contemporary problems and challenges such as the use of microprocessor-based systems to control home appliances and the detection and resolution of collisions in applied mechanics.
You will develop fundamental skills, such as learning the powerful general-purpose programming language C , and experience in-depth study of computer networks and systems. Using artificial intelligence code, you will learn how to control advanced mobile robots in our purpose-built laboratory.
Our modules are designed to focus on real-life industry scenarios to enhance your employability. You will also be able to enjoy projects and extracurriculars related to your course. Get involved with our dedicated Robot Club, where you will solidify your skills by instructing secondary school children on robotic construction or take the opportunity to develop your own robot project, with the potential to compete in the annual international Robot Challenge in Vienna.
Key features
- Benefit from teaching by experienced staff from our internationally recognised Institute of Artificial Intelligence that conducts world-leading research into artificial intelligence, computational intelligence and intelligent systems.
- Enhance your practical and professional skills with work placement opportunities. Students have undertaken placements at companies such as IBM, Microsoft and PayPoint.
- Access specialist facilities, including our Advanced Mobile Robotics and Intelligent Agents Laboratory, which contain a variety of mobile robots.
- Through block teaching, you will focus on one subject at a time instead of several at once. This means that you will be able to focus closely on each subject and absorb your learning material in more depth, whilst working more closely with your tutors and course mates.
- Put your skills into practice by taking part in the DMU Robot Club, with a chance to compete in an international robotics competition. Our students and staff have previously won prizes at the Robot Challenge in Vienna.
- Expand your horizons and enrich your studies with a DMU Global experience. Students on related courses have tested their hacking skills at New York’s Spyscape Museum and networked with tech entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley.
