COURSE DESCRIPTION
Machine learning is the study of algorithms that automatically improve with experience.
These algorithms allow computers to do things like automatically identify and harness useful data to help decision making, find hidden insights without being explicitly programmed where to look, and predict outcomes to help authorities design effective policies.
You’ll graduate with skills at the forefront of this massive growth area, as society looks for automated solutions to enhance business and our lives through the use of computing systems and data.
These skills can be applied in government departments, consultancy or private sector organisations.
You’ll join a growing industry:
Artificial intelligence specialist was the #1 emerging job of 2020 (LinkedIn 2020 Emerging Jobs Report).
AI could contribute up to $15.7 trillion to the global economy in 2030 (PwC research).
New AI technologies will require highly-skilled workers who can develop and maintain complex systems and applications.
