Key Summary
Artificial intelligence is a powerful tool for processing and analysing large amounts of data to automate tasks and create smart environments. It has gradually shaped our interaction with devices; our daily use of smartwatches and smartphones, extended use of applications such as weather forecast, chatbots, and email junk filters, and even smart cars.
Nowadays, artificial intelligence also became an integral part in business operation as well as enhanced and sustainable development in nearly all fields. Starting from healthcare systems, surveillance and security, traffic control, finance, energy sector and load regulations, weather forecast, as well as smart vehicles and robotics. It is applied to enhance systems operations, optimize performances and use of resources, as well as smart monitoring and decision-making tools. At Kristiania, you will learn the basic knowledge and needed skills to solve problems using artificial intelligence by creating and implementing appropriate methods for each problem.
The study programme provides the students with the knowledge and skills in the artificial intelligence field with a focus on:
- Broad understanding of the basis of the artificial intelligence field and big data concepts as well as developing the required skills to apply them in different fields.
- Wide knowledge of the software tools used to develop artificial intelligence algorithms.
- Broad knowledge of different artificial intelligence algorithms including classical and advanced algorithms, and being able to develop, evaluate, critique, and apply them.
- Deep understanding of the ethical and regulation implication related to the development of a sustainable artificial intelligence algorithm.
Unfortunately, we do not offer additional funding or scholarships.
