Course content

In a world increasingly dominated by AI, organizations will have a growing demand for graduates who possess expertise in developing and implementing machine learning applications, alongside a strong understanding of societal and ethical issues, as well as effective communication skills. The MSc in Artificial Intelligence and Ethics addresses this need for interdisciplinary engagement by teaching students the computational and programming techniques fundamental to modern AI, while also providing a philosophical foundation in the field. Students will learn and practice various programming functions using Python, NumPy, and Pandas, applying concepts from data science, program design, machine learning, and natural language processing.
