Double degree courses include the features of the component degree courses, except that electives may be reduced.

Artificial intelligence

C2005 Bachelor of Artificial Intelligence is a specialist course, structured in four parts. In this double degree you complete:

Part A. Foundation studies 

AI foundation studies introduce programming, data and evaluation, technology impacts, and AI systems and tools, including secure and responsible use of AI-enabled systems.

Part B. Specialist studies 

AI specialist studies deepen capabilities in major areas of contemporary AI practice and advanced topics.

Part C. Practice studies 

Practice studies provide a structured, industry-embedded project spine through which you apply your knowledge in progressively more complex contexts, including project scoping, design, implementation, evaluation, governance, and capstone delivery.

Health Sciences
