School of Science & Information Technology (SSIT)
B.Sc. Artificial Intelligence
Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning, Robotics, and Automation technologies have transformed industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, finance, and smart infrastructure. AI-driven systems are increasingly being used to solve complex problems, improve efficiency, and enable intelligent decision-making.
As the demand for intelligent systems and automation continues to grow, there is a critical need for skilled professionals who can design, develop, and deploy AI-based solutions and robotic systems. However, the availability of qualified experts in these emerging fields remains limited worldwide. Governments, industries, research institutions, and technology-driven organizations are actively seeking professionals with expertise in AI and robotics to drive innovation and economic growth.
Therefore, the B.Sc. Artificial Intelligence and Robotics programme is designed to equip students with the knowledge, technical skills, and practical experience required to meet the growing global demand in this domain.
The philosophy of computing is concerned with the analysis, design, and development of software and hardware systems for specific purposes. In particular, computing encompasses a broad-based exposure to the concepts, theories, technologies of computing, practices and experiences that are utilised for solving problems in all aspects of human endeavour through building safe, reliable, secure and resilient computer systems.
