Our programme bridges computer science, machine learning, linguistics and signal processing, driving transformative technologies such as chat/voice assistants, real-time machine translation, sentiment analysis and speech recognition. Modules in natural language processing will introduce you to the core technologies underpinning state-of-the-art AI tools, such as ChatGPT and DeepSeek.
This course is ideal for students with a keen interest in machine learning, linguistics, phonetics, and computational techniques with a background in computer science and engineering, or a related field.
A third of your study time will be devoted to an individual dissertation, where you will collaborate closely with a member of staff to research topics such as machine learning, natural language processing, or speech recognition. These capabilities will prepare you for dynamic careers in AI development, speech and language technology, or academic research, making you a sought-after professional in these cutting-edge fields.
