Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence with Study Abroad, MEng

MEng Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence with Study Abroad combines a focus on the rapidly evolving field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of computer science, including opportunities to specialise in a range of advanced areas of AI and computer science while gaining skills in system development and enterprise. We review our curriculum constantly to ensure it remains at the leading edge.

Core ideas are introduced in years one and two. You will learn the principles of algorithms and programming, covering three key paradigms: imperative, functional and object-oriented. You will also study the core concepts, tools and methods of artificial intelligence; the mathematics and statistics underpinning modern computer science and artificial intelligence; how a modern computer architecture is organised; and the foundations of human-computer interaction, cybersecurity and theoretical and data-driven computer science.

A key component of year two is the AI software team project in which you work with others to develop an AI application for a real-world client with help from an industrial mentor.

During your year abroad you will study computer science topics that parallel, as far as possible, our curriculum at Bristol. The University has links with universities in countries such as the US, Hong Kong and Australia. Destinations are subject to change year-on-year. To find out more about studying abroad, visit the Centre for Study Abroad.

You will return to the University for your fourth year, where you will specialise further in selected advanced areas of computer science and AI. You will undertake an individual AI project with a focus on Artificial Intelligence topics such as machine vision, intelligent agents, logic, and machine learning, co-created with a supervising member of staff, with opportunities to work with industrial or research partners.

We accept a wide variety of qualifications and welcome applications from students of all backgrounds. Below is a guide to the typical offers for this course.
