Course Description

Intelligent systems are having a huge impact. Household appliances are more helpful and robots are venturing into space. Help create the future of AI on a robotics degree awarded initial accreditation by BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT (subject to re-approval).

Robotics and AI have come a long way since the work of Alan Turing. They pave the way for extraordinary opportunities in the modern world. As we develop increasingly sophisticated artificial systems, we’ll see transformations in how we live, work, travel and learn. After graduating with our BSc (Hons) Robotics & Artificial Intelligence degree you could be working on the newest emerging technologies in a vast range of industries.

During our robotics and artificial intelligence degree, we’ll teach you how to unleash the potential of robotics, AI, automation and more. Could you make a difference to the way virtual reality is used in medicine? Do you want to test the boundaries between human intelligence and machine intelligence?

On our robotics and AI degree, you’ll develop specialist expertise in the fundamentals of intelligent systems. Programming, network architecture and software design will all become second nature to you.

After graduation with your BSc (Hons) degree, you’ll be prepared for a career working with intelligent systems ranging from domestic appliances and search engines to robots exploring Mars.
