Artificial Intelligence Engineering | University of Southampton

The year 1 and 2 modules are similar across all our Electronic Engineering courses and provide a grounding in essential engineering topics.

In years 3 and 4 youll specialise in AI, and can follow your interests by choosing modules from a wide range of options. You can also take modules from other subject areas.

Youll work in high-spec electronics and computer labs, equipped with the latest technology, hardware and software.

In the first year, youll study digital systems, and electrical materials and fields. There are core modules in:

mathematics

physics

electronics

programming

We'll develop your practical skills with extensive laboratory classes. In your first semester youll get to build processing boards.

Compulsory modules will explore:

electrical materials

circuitry

programming

electronic design

You'll choose from optional modules, covering topics such as:

photonics

semiconductors

computer engineering

At the end of the year, you'll complete a 3-week team challenge, judged by an industry panel. Previous projects include the development of a home AI system and building a quadcopter.

Youll complete a unique piece of individual research in an AI topic of your choice. This will typically involve designing, building and testing a new electronic system. Past students have designed a traffic counting system using computer vision, and explored security for smart home systems.

You'll study the foundations of machine learning, and select specialised optional modules such as:

robotic systems

computational biology

cyber security

green electronics

You can also choose to:

The main group design project is a great opportunity to experience working for an industry or academic customer. Past projects have involved:

Youll also select from optional modules covering topics, such as:

machine Learning

data mining

computer vision

You can apply to spend the second semester studying abroad at a partner institution.
