Summary
Artificial Intelligence (AI) encompasses the techniques and methods used to tackle problems that traditional approaches to computing struggle to solve. The four areas of fuzzy logic, evolutionary computing, neural networks and natural language processing encompass much of what is considered to be artificial intelligence. There are also opportunities to apply what you learn in areas such as robot control and games development, depending on your interests.
You will study neural systems, natural language processing and research methods and applications while developing your skills in our dedicated robotics laboratory, equipped with a variety of mobile robots. The applied computational intelligence module considers knowledge-based systems, as well as the historical, philosophical and future implications of AI, and focuses on current research and applications in the area.
Modules include work based on research by the Institute of Artificial Intelligence (IAI). With an established international reputation, its work focuses on the use of fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks, evolutionary computing, mobile robotics and biomedical informatics, providing theoretically sound solutions to real-world decision making and prediction problems. Previous students have published papers with their IAI project supervisors and progressed on to PhD study.

De Montfort University
Faculty of Computing, Engineering and Media
The Faculty of Computing, Engineering and Media postgraduate programmes benefit from decades of well-established academic and industry expertise.
A new way of learning
Many of our postgraduate programmes benefit from a new block model for delivering our courses, known as Education 2030. This means a more simplified timetable where you will study one subject at a time instead of several at once. You will have more time to engage with your learning and get to know the teaching team and course mates. You will receive faster feedback through more regular …
