University of Birmingham Dubai opens applications for BSc, MSc in AI and Computer Science

The University of Birmingham Dubai has opened the application process for its BSc and MSc courses in Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science commencing in September 2022.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a multidisciplinary field that connects computing, psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, mathematics and linguistics.

The three-year BSc programme is UAE’s ministry of education accredited Computer Science programme, and the one-year MSc programme is a standard international course.

Both the programmes by the university have been designed in such a way that candidates from a variety of academic backgrounds can get updated on AI and computer science. It also allows them to acquire skills to pursue research.

Students will have the opportunity to interact and work alongside students from their Edgbaston counterpart in the UK, while studying on the Dubai campus.

For its September 2022 admissions, the university is offering scholarships of up to 40% to Indian students based on their academic performance.
