PROGRAM STRUCTURE

Degree Level 1

Students will learn fundamental skills required by every IT professional, and the basic understanding of artificial intelligence techniques and algorithmnic thinking. Some specialised modules will provide them basic knowledge of underlying computer systems such as Computer Architecture, operating systems, networks and databases. The modules will also help them develop personal and organisational skills, as well as nurture creativity and innovation.


Common Modules
 
  • Introduction to Networking
  • Systems Software and Computing Concepts
  • Introduction to Databases
  • Python Programming
  • Systems Analysis and Design
  • Integrated Computer Systems
  • Fundamental of Entrepreneurship
  • Digital Thinking and Innovation


Specialised Modules
 
  • Mathematical Concepts for Computing
  • Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
  • Introduction to Object Oriented Programming

Degree Level 2

A broader range of skills will be learnt, in which the students will gain a better understanding of artificial intelligence techniques such as machine learning, fuzzy logic, and natural language processing. They will gain solid understanding of techniques used to develop complex software systems that include data acquisitions via various sensors. We will further nurture their creativity and innovation as well as independent learning to prepare them for the workplace.


Common Modules
 
  • Innovation Process

  •  

Internship (16 Weeks)

Students will undertake an Internship/Industrial Training for a minimum period of 16 weeks to prepare them for a smooth transition from the classroom to the working environment.


Degree Level 3

Students will make use of their previous studies and industrial experience to extend their familiarity in the field of intelligent systems and to refine their personal and professional development. Students will move further into artificial intelligence design paradigms and algorithms, programming techniques and statistical techniques applicable to artificial intelligence. A final year project requires them to investigate and develop a solution for a real-world problem - they will demonstrate their ability to combine technical knowledge, critical thinking and analytical skills to produce a personal achievement portfolio.


Common Modules
 
  • Venture Building
  • Project Management


Specialised Modules
 
  • Investigations in Artificial Intelligence
  • Algorithmics
  • User Experience
  • Advanced Database Systems
  • Text Analytics and Sentiment Analysis
  • Image Processing, Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition
  • Further Artificial Intelligence
  • Optimization and Deep Learning
  • Project in Artificial Intelligence
