Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence, MSci (Hons), with industry placement

The Computer Science with AI course at Coventry University equips students with essential practical skills and theoretical knowledge for a career in this dynamic field. It covers artificial intelligence, machine learning, parallel programming, and data science, emphasizing how these areas foster innovation. Students develop software solutions for complex demands, gain real-world experience through team-based projects and industry placements, and benefit from activity-led learning, professional skills focus, flexible online options, and guest lectures from experts.The program features a common first year shared with related courses, allowing exploration and potential degree switches. Subsequent years build advanced knowledge in AI, computation, security, and machine learning, with an optional MSci year for deeper study. Assessment includes interactive lectures, seminars, labs, workshops, and online activities, supported by formative feedback to enhance student outcomes.

This course has a common first year  The common first year enables you to work alongside students doing similar courses to you, to widen your knowledge and exposure to other subject areas and professions. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with other students, so you can share your insights and experience which will help you to develop and learn.  If you discover an interest in a specific subject you have studied, upon successful completion of your first year, you could swap degrees with another course in your common first year (subject to meeting progression requirements). Common first-year courses Information Technology Management BSc (Hons) Interactive Media and Web Technologies BSc (Hons) Software Engineering BSc (Hons) Year Two In Year two, you will develop more advanced knowledge and skills in relation artificial intelligence, theory of computation, software engineering, amongst others. Placement Year There’s no better way to find out what you love doing than trying it out for yourself, which is why a work placement* can often be beneficial. Work placements usually occur between your second and final year of study. They’re a great way to help you explore your potential career path and gain valuable work experience, whilst developing transferable skills for the future.  If you choose to do a work placement year, you will pay a reduced tuition fee* of £1,250.
