MSc in Computational Intelligence and Robotics
Computational intelligence and robotics are exciting areas that bring together research in engineering, computing and neuroscience. Recent advances in how the brain works, and applications such as biologically inspired robotics, have occurred, in large part, due to a greater understanding of computational intelligence as a unified discipline.
Who should take this course?
You will have a numerate degree such as engineering, mathematics or physical sciences and a passion for learning about how engineering, computing and neuroscience can be brought together in solving challenging problems about the brain and learning.
Where will it get you?
The MSc will prepare you for a wide range of potential careers from fundamental research, through to engineering and science roles in major organisations. In addition to the specialist knowledge you will acquire, the multi-disciplinary nature of the MSc, and many of the techniques you will learn, are highly sought after in industry and research establishments worldwide.
Who will teach you?
You will be taught by world-leading experts from the departments of Automatic Control & Systems Engineering, Computer Science, and the neuroscience group in Psychology. We have wide ranging expertise and research interests spanning everything from developing models of how the brain works through fundamental algorithm development to investigating how robots interact and can be applied to the real world.
Course Description
This course provides the multi-disciplinary knowledge and skills you will need to meet the demand for experts in computational intelligence and robotics. You will study a mixture of modules in computational neuroscience, machine learning, neural networks, modelling and simulation of natural systems, multi-sensor data fusion, adaptive intelligence and robotics. You will also receive training in research skills and will undertake a substantial individual project which will allow you to specialise even further.
