    About Bachelor in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science BSc (Hons)

    Dealing with data is one of the biggest challenges that society faces – but it also offers huge opportunities. From autonomous vehicles to medical systems, data science and AI is penetrating nearly every industry. Employers in both public and private sectors rely more heavily on data in their decision making than ever before, and these are all solved by rigorously applying mathematical modelling in combination with Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to ever growing data sets. A shortage of a suitably skilled workforce has been identified by the Government Operational Research Service (GORS) and other bodies. And with the demand for AI skills and data science continuing to grow, now is the perfect time to study this area and set yourself up for a successful career. On this degree, you will study the mathematical foundations of data analysis combined with the practical elements of performing that analysis and extracting useful meaning from the data. You will also learn the mathematical foundations of AI and how to construct AI systems and models.
