📚About the Program
Master’s in Artificial Intelligence at Munster Technological University
This programme is delivered full-time, on campus, over one academic year. Part-time, online delivery, over two years is also available at https://www.mtu.ie/courses/crkarti9/ Artificial intelligence (AI) is a field of computer science that enables computers and machines to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence. Its many applications range from chess-playing robots and autonomous cars to speech, image, and language processing, robotic manufacturing, and surveillance systems. AI simulates human intelligence processes by combining large datasets, machine learning, and computational power with algorithms capable of solving problems. In the 21st century, AI techniques have experienced a resurgence following concurrent advances in computer power, large amounts of data, and theoretical understanding. AI techniques have become an essential part of the technology industry, helping to solve many challenging problems in computer science. This Master’s degree programme provides a technical deep-dive into the area of AI. The programme will produce AI graduates with a highly relevant skillset in AI topics. You’ll learn how to use and develop intelligent computer systems that can learn from experience, recognise patterns in vast amounts of data and reason strategically in complex decision making situations. The programme places significant emphasis on student learning by doing. It adopts a practical, hands-on, approach to learning, where all modules are fully assessed using continuous assessment methods The MSc in a 60 credit programme. The full-time programme is delivered over two 30 credit semesters. Each semester has a number of mandatory modules and a choice of electives (all electives may not be offered). The aim of this programme is to produce expert AI developers. Successful completion of the programme will equip these graduates with the desired skills and provide them with the following benefits: Ability to deal with technically complex problems Support in making strategically important decisions within their profession Gain a qualification that is in high demand in the market place Attain expertise to carry out AI research in academic and R&D environments Provide intelligent solutions to IT problems in companies and organisations
