Overview

Explore how Artificial Intelligence drives innovation at major companies like Google, Tesla, and OpenAI, and shapes the future across industries.

Through hands-on projects (no coding skills required), discover how AI technologies are applied in real-world scenarios, preparing you for future academic and professional success, especially if you aim to study Computer Science, Data Science, or AI at university.

Designed by our expert academic team, this programme is ideal for 15-17-year-old international students, whether you're new to AI or already have some knowledge.

By the end of this module, you'll confidently apply AI concepts to solve real-world challenges, equipping you for further studies in this fast-growing field.

Sample Topics

Each week, you'll explore core aspects of AI industries:

 

Reinforcement Learning

Explore how Reinforcement Learning mimics the way humans learn from the environment. Discover how computer agents learn to shape their strategy over time through trial-and-error and understand how this technique is applied to real-world problems like self-driving cars, personalised recommendations, and even beating world champions in complex games like Go.

 

Neural Networks and Deep Learning

Understand the role of neural networks and deep learning in modern AI. Train your own Machine Learning model to recognise and classify objects in images, learning how deep learning powers systems from facial recognition to AI-driven solutions e.g. ocean garbage collector.

 

Ethics and Bias in AI

Examine the ethical challenges of AI, including algorithmic bias, privacy concerns, and the social implications of technology. Analyse real-world examples, such as biased facial recognition systems, and discuss strategies to address these issues responsibly.
