Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence

The Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence (BSAI) degree program at AURAK is designed to equip learners with an in-depth knowledge of computer science theory and a thorough understanding of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science technologies. Students are exposed to state-of-the-art AI-related methods relevant to knowledge representation and reasoning. Such techniques will enhance human capabilities through automated analysis of complex inputs and facilitate automated decision making. The program includes techniques and topics such as machine learning, computer vision, robotics, data analysis and visualization, natural language processing, and data mining.

The global demand for AI and data science professionals is on the rise due to the integration of the field into most industries. This need is further exacerbated by a worldwide shortage of AI talent.
