2-Term International Incorporated Masters (IIM) - Continue to Master of Science - Applied Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence

The Pre-Masters is offered over one or two terms and is designed for students who do not qualify for direct entry to the masters programmes at the university, this could be because of the grades achieved in a bachelor degree; current qualifications are not equivalent to a UK bachelor degree or because students have a different background.

After successfully completing the Pre-Masters students will continue on to a chosen postgraduate degree course at the University of Bradford. During the IFY students will: • Study at the university campus • Have full access to the university amenities and student benefits

Applied Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Computer science is the foundation of many exciting and cutting-edge topics, technologies and applications. This covers AI, Big Data, and Cybersecurity, which span almost every aspect of our lives; from smartphone app development, to the self-driving assistance that revolutionises the safety and efficiency of our transport systems. Due to the pandemic, computer-related skills have become more important with the requirements of working remotely. Converting to Computer Science could develop your problem-solving and practical skills. You will also establish specialist knowledge of tools and techniques for creating intelligent algorithms and software. On this conversion course, you will benefit from over 50 years of academic experience in computer science. You will also learn how to integrate a diverse set of skills from a variety of topics into real-world applications, through our industry-focused curriculum. Combining computer science with subject knowledge from your first degree will make you a unique, highly employable graduate. You will study topics such as: • programming • applied machine learning • big data strategy • access to Amazon’s AWS programme • machine learning • networks • intelligent systems

You will be challenged to combine and apply these topics on practical projects with career-launching outcomes. As an extension, the delivered computer science principle will also support social science-relevant topics including ethics, social enterprise or social justice.
