Finances for studying abroad on exchange
Demand for AI skills is surging worldwide. It’s predicted that 97 million jobs involving AI will be created by 2025 (World Economic Forum).
This programme is designed to respond to a growing demand in the technology sector for people able to design, implement and deploy computer programmes, following the latest advances in artificial intelligence.
Our world-leading lecturers will teach the fundamental aspects of computer science, complemented by an extensive coverage of the main sub-fields of artificial intelligence, including: ethics, search, evolutionary computation, game theory, machine and deep learning, data science, computer vision, games and music.
Please note that all modules are subject to change.
You will be asked to choose one of the following streams of modules, according to your interests.
Apply for this degree with any of the following options. Take care to use the correct UCAS code - it may not be possible to change your selection later.

Please note - you can either do a year in industry or a year abroad - you cannot combine these options.
"It’s hard to pick one thing that I enjoyed most - I absolutely enjoyed all aspects of studying Computer Science at Queen Mary. However, if I had to pick one thing, I would say that I enjoyed having a dedicated study and lab space (the ITL), where we had the opportunity to relate to students at different levels of their study."
You’ll spend 15 to 20 hours per week in lectures, laboratory sessions and tutorials. You will also be expected to complete additional hours of independent study. You’ll meet with your personal advisor regularly, to ensure that you are settling in and progressing well.
Assessment typically includes a combination of coursework (presentations, assignments, essay report writing, in-class tests, research and project work) and/or examinations in May or June.
Individual and group projects are assessed through a written report, practical demonstration and oral examination.
As a student, your home will be the Mile End campus. You'll spend lots of time in our Informatics Teaching Lab (ITL), which is only used by Electronic Engineering and Computer Science students. This lab is made up of 300 fully networked multimedia workstations, which run both the Linux and Windows operating systems. The ITL is due to undergo a £5.8 million refurbishment, funded by the Office for Students.
We have a number of computer science students employed as 'module demonstrators', who are available in labs to help first and second-year students to navigate software and programming tools.
Alternative offers may be made to applicants taking the Extended Project Qualification.
