Master in Artificial Intelligence and Automation Engineering

For Master in Artificial Intelligence and Automation Engineering, tuition fees are 1,606 EUR per year.

Artificial intelligence and automation engineering combines two closely related fields: building intelligent systems capable of learning from data, and designing automated systems that control physical processes and machinery. Students in this discipline typically study machine learning, control theory, robotics, and programmable systems, along with the mathematical foundations of statistics and optimization that support both artificial intelligence models and automated control strategies. Coursework often addresses how intelligent algorithms can be applied within automated industrial settings, for instance using machine vision or predictive models to make production lines more adaptive, alongside more traditional automation topics such as sensors, actuators, and industrial communication networks. Because these two areas increasingly overlap in modern manufacturing and robotics, programs combining them prepare students to work at the interface of software-driven intelligence and physical automation systems. Graduates commonly pursue roles as automation engineers, robotics engineers, or machine learning engineers within manufacturing, robotics, and technology companies, applying their training to projects that require both control systems expertise and data-driven decision-making. Others move into research roles developing new approaches to intelligent automation. This master's degree in Artificial Intelligence and Automation Engineering is offered by Università degli Studi di Siena, located in Siena, Italy. The program is taught in English and runs for two years, with admission open to holders of a bachelor's degree or equivalent qualification. Siena is situated in the Tuscany region, and the program is part of the university's engineering department.
