This course explores biologically inspired algorithms, their connections to living intelligence, and the essence of consciousness, while building on core computer science fundamentals. Students can specialize in areas such as speech recognition, language processing, or robotics, positioning themselves at the forefront of artificial intelligence and humanity's inquiry into life itself. The program begins with foundational studies in the first year, progresses to engineering real software systems for clients in the second year, and culminates in a dissertation project with options like Modelling and Simulation of Natural Systems or Cognitive and Biomimetic Robotics to tailor learning.Graduates emerge as skilled computer scientists, adept team players, communicators, and system designers. Key advantages include developing professional skills through group work, gaining industry experience with real clients, accessing state-of-the-art facilities like advanced labs and robotics arenas, and receiving ongoing support from dedicated welfare advisors.
