BSc Computing (Artificial Intelligence and Robotics) (2-year degree)
About this course
Artificial intelligence and robotics sit at the forefront of one of the most significant technological transformations in recent history. AI refers to the development of algorithms and systems that can perform tasks traditionally associated with human intelligence, including reasoning, learning, perception, and decision-making. Robotics combines AI with mechanical and electronic engineering to create autonomous systems capable of operating in physical environments, from factory floors and surgical theatres to exploration vehicles and domestic assistance. At the University of Buckingham, this two-year full-time accelerated degree in Computing with a focus on Artificial Intelligence and Robotics allows you to develop professional and technical skills in these areas in a compressed timeframe. You will study the algorithms and computational principles that drive AI and robotics systems, alongside the practical skills needed to design, implement, and evaluate such systems. The programme is particularly relevant for students who are motivated and focused, and who want to develop market-ready technical capabilities efficiently without sacrificing depth. Knowledge and understanding in AI and robotics are increasingly sought after across many sectors of the economy, from healthcare and manufacturing to finance and transportation. Graduates are well placed for careers in software engineering, machine learning, AI research and development, robotics engineering, and systems design across a wide range of industries. The two-year format means you enter the job market sooner, which is an advantage in a fast-moving field where early professional experience is highly valued. Many graduates also pursue postgraduate study in artificial intelligence, robotics, computer science, or a related field to develop deeper technical expertise or move into research roles. The combination of algorithmic understanding and practical implementation skills makes graduates adaptable in a sector that continues to evolve rapidly.
