Artificial Intelligence
Are you interested in both human cognition and computing science? Would you like to unravel human intelligence and recreate it in smart computers and systems? Then our Bachelor’s programme in Artificial Intelligence is the perfect fit for you!
Something for you?
- You can personalise your programme by means of elective courses.
- You can complete part of your programma studying abroad.
- The AI programme at Radboud University collaborates closely with several renowned research institutes.
- As a first-year student, you will have your own student mentor, whom you can approach if you have any questions.
During your AI programme, you will study core subjects like mathematics, neuroscience and computer science, as well as topics from psychology, logic, linguistics and philosophy. With this knowledge, you will develop computer models of the human cognition as well as intelligent computer programmes that are able to execute tasks autonomously.
Groundbreaking insights are often found at the crossroads of disciplines. The vibrant and interdisciplinary field of Artificial Intelligence is a good example of this. We study human cognition in order to be able to understand and model artificial intelligence, with the aim of creating smarter computers and robots. In addition to mathematics, computing science and other exact sciences, you will be studying psychology, neuroscience, logic and linguistics. After all, you will first need to know how the human brain works before you can start creating smart computers and robots. Conversely, computer models that mimic these brain processes can be quite useful in understanding the human brain. Artificial Intelligence is a young dynamic field in which there is much to discover!
