Technology and Artificial Intelligence
Major
We are living through a technological revolution unlike anything humanity has experienced before. Artificial intelligence is reshaping everything from healthcare and education to entertainment and governance. The 'Technology and Artificial Intelligence' major equips you with the cutting-edge skills and critical understanding necessary to thrive in our AI-powered future.
Our expert tutors combine technical instruction with ethical discussions, ensuring you develop both the skills to build with AI and the wisdom to deploy it responsibly. This dual approach, technical mastery and critical thinking, prepares you to be an empowered creator rather than a passive consumer of technology.
You'll explore machine learning, understanding how computers learn from data, recognise patterns, and make predictions - powering everything from recommendation systems to autonomous vehicles. Master generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and DALL-E, learning how to leverage them effectively as collaborators in problem-solving and creativity. The course introduces Python coding fundamentals, building your confidence in writing programs and understanding digital logic. You'll also explore neural networks and how AI processes information differently from traditional software, plus learn prompt engineering - the art of communicating effectively with AI systems to get optimal results.
Create Your Own Custom GPT: Design a personalized AI assistant for a purpose you choose
Python Projects: Build practical applications like data analysis tools, automation scripts, and simple AI models. .
AI-Generated Content Experiments: Explore AI as a creative partner in art, music, writing, and design, understanding both its potential and the questions it raises about originality and authenticity.
Students will explore how AI is transforming fields like healthcare, education, business, governance, climate science, and cybersecurity. They will learn about data privacy, responsible AI development, and emerging global regulations, while engaging in debates on ethical challenges such as algorithmic bias, job automation, AI-generated content ownership, and life-or-death decision-making.
