Course summary

Course overview

The development and use of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) have revolutionised areas such as computer vision, speech recognition and language processing.

On this course you will learn how to apply ML and AI techniques to real scientific problems. This will help you build vital skills, enhancing your employability in a rapidly expanding area.

Graduates of this course will learn how to:

identify and use relevant computational tools and programming techniques

apply statistical and physical principles to break down algorithms, and explain how they work

design strategies for applying machine learning to the analysis of scientific data sets.

In addition, you will develop a broad set of transferable skills, including communication, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Previous students of this course have undertaken paid part-time internships with external partners.

You will have the opportunity to develop your own research project on a topic of your choice. Previous projects have looked at:

Deep Learning for drug discovery

Machine Learning for sustainable solvent selection

Quantum reinforcement learning

Supervised machine learning on a quantum computer

Deep Learning network for fatigue monitoring of wind turbine blades
