Are you interested in technology and in human behaviour? Do you love working with the latest information and communications technology? Then the Master in Artificial Intelligence is your programme.

As an Artificial Intelligence Master's student, you learn to do independent research into the potential of artificial intelligence. You explore knowledge acquisition and modelling, multi-agent systems and efficient & effective research techniques. And because intelligence is more than just logical thought, you draw upon knowledge from across the academic spectrum: Philosophy, Logic, Psychology, Information Science, Linguistic Analysis and Mathematics. Artificial Intelligence graduates can find work in a range of professions, both managerial and technical, depending upon your chosen specialization. If you have taken Organizational Dynamics and Self-Organization, for example, then organizational consultancy could be for you. The Cognitive Science specialization might lead to a career in human factor design or applied human-computer interaction. An Intelligent Internet Applications specialization means that you will probably not have to wait long before being snapped up by business or the public sector.
