Technical Artificial Intelligence focuses on questions, techniques and systems with emphasis to the logical and symbolical models involved in describing and implementing agents.

Technical Artificial Intelligence is of particular interest to students who wish to broaden their perspective and reach out to neighbouring fields such as philosophy, mathematics, economy, sociology, psychology, linguistics and law. Key topics are: Agent Technology Artifical Intelligence Techniques and Agent Oriented Software Engineering An intelligent agent is an artificial - computer-based - entity that can act pro-actively, reactively, autonomously and rationally in a dynamic environment. Agents can reason about the situation they are in, plan their actions, revise their beliefs, learn, communicate and cooperate. System designers have to hand over part of the control to software agents and give them more autonomy. However, the current interest in AI and multi-agent systems also comes from new application areas. For instance, from the nowadays huge industry for computer games and serious games.
