Artificial intelligence
overview
Innovation that excites
The 60-ECTS variant is designed as a specialisation and will provide you with skills and in-depth knowledge in the fields of machine learning, neural networks, and reinforcement learning. You will concentrate primarily on the cognitive processes of computer-based language and image processing so that you will later be able to develop sophisticated AI systems and applications.
In the 120-ECTS model you will have the additional opportunity to deepen your knowledge in various practice-oriented courses and specialise, e.g. in human-machine interaction, language and image processing, Industry 4.0 and robotics, autonomous driving, or project management for AI projects.
You’ll acquire fundamental knowledge in the management and finance-oriented business administration courses. Afterwards, you can pick the electives of your choice that suit your interests. Your comprehensive knowledge will open up new job opportunities in many industries and companies around the world – so there’s nothing standing in the way of your international career.
