Our computer science with artificial intelligence course is designed to develop both your general understanding of computer science and more specialist skills and knowledge in artificial intelligence (AI).

In addition to fundamental computer science classes and laboratories, the course covers topics including expert systems, intelligent agents, the history and philosophy of artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision, neural networks, heuristic optimisation and other intelligent systems. By following this programme you will learn how to develop new methodologies and novel computational techniques for the creation of human-like intelligence.

This course consists of spending your final year in the UK where you will study advanced AI techniques with specialist staff. For the first two years of this three-year degree you will be taught at the Malaysia Campus. You will then transfer to The University of Nottingham in the UK for the final year of your studies where you will be able to take a variety of specialist courses that are supported by the world-leading research that is undertaken within the school.

While many computer science graduates do become programmers, others are employed in a wide variety of jobs. These include computer analysts, IT consultants and planners, network/systems designers and engineers, researchers, software designers and engineers, web designers, web developers and producers as well as roles across advertising and marketing, business and financial analysis, accountancy and investment/merchant banking and legal and quality assurance professions. Some of our graduates have gone on to work for traditional computer companies such as Adobe, Google, Hewlett-Packard, IBM and Microsoft. Others have found jobs with employers such as Accenture, Experian, and Ocado.
