Computing

Computing with Artificial Intelligence and Robotics combines the foundational principles of computer science with the algorithms, systems and engineering knowledge that drive intelligent and autonomous machines. Artificial intelligence seeks to create systems that can perceive, reason, learn and act, while robotics applies those capabilities to physical machines that interact with the real world. Together they address some of the most technically challenging and practically significant problems in computer science, and the demand for practitioners who can work across both domains is growing rapidly across industry, healthcare, logistics, defence and manufacturing.

At the University of Buckingham this three-year full-time degree develops your professional and technical skills in creating autonomous systems, covering the algorithmic foundations of AI alongside the hardware, software and control systems knowledge needed to build and deploy robotic systems. You will gain practical experience in implementing AI and robotics solutions, developing the technical depth and problem-solving capabilities that employers across a range of sectors are actively seeking. The curriculum is designed to reflect the real knowledge gaps that industry is looking to fill, ensuring your skills are directly relevant to the roles you will be applying for after graduation.

Graduates from Computing with AI and Robotics degrees go on to careers in artificial intelligence, machine learning, robotics engineering, automation, autonomous systems and software development across a wide range of industries. Many find roles in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare technology, automotive engineering, aerospace, defence and research organisations. The combination of programming skill, algorithmic knowledge and systems understanding the degree develops is valued wherever intelligent or autonomous systems are being built or deployed.

Postgraduate study in artificial intelligence, robotics, computer science or related technical fields is an option for those wishing to develop further.
