About Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) with an Industrial Placement Year, MComp - at University of Sheffield

Our degrees will help you to become more than just a programmer - you will also develop skills in teamwork, communication, systems design and entrepreneurship.

This course is about biologically inspired algorithms, their relationship to living biological intelligence and the nature of consciousness itself. Some modules overlap with the main Computer Science degree, so you get the same solid grounding in the fundamentals.

You can specialise in speech recognition, language processing or learn about robotics.

You'll have the chance to arrange a year in industry. This will put your academic studies into context, improve your skills and enhance your employment prospects. As well as being paid a salary during your placement you will pay reduced tuition fees for that year.

In the final year, you'll get the chance to be part of a research team, working alongside a member of staff in one of our research labs. You'll also have the option to participate in Geneys - our student-led software development organisation.
