Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence (Honours) Sheffield Hallam University

Overview

On the Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence (Honours) programme from Sheffield Hallam University through practice-based learning, you’ll develop a deep understanding of the use of machine-learning and artificial intelligence in a variety of domains. 

You'll become a programmer who can build the next generation of software that will support users in complex tasks, automate mundane tasks, and use large data sets to help us understand our world.

Key facts

• Develop AI systems to solve complex problems 

• Use machine learning to support decision making 

• Design and build complex software using analytical and mathematical approaches 

• Work with companies to solve real-world practical problems 

How you learn

• This course starts by helping you to develop practical skills in developing software applications through lectures and hands-on tutorial sessions. These sessions will build your understanding of how and when to use appropriate processes, tools, technologies, and project management practices. 

• These fundamental skills will then be further developed by introducing you to real-world projects. As part of these projects, you’ll collaborate in small teams to produce software prototypes to problems that are introduced and inspired by industry.  Tackling problems in industry helps you prepare for a career in software development using AI and machine learning.
