Artificial Intelligence

What is the objective of the course? What is it?
What does it train you for?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an expanding scientific discipline of great relevance and impact for digital transformation, aiming to study how human intelligence can be imitated by digital systems in one or multiple aspects.

The technological applications of AI are increasingly numerous, necessitating AI experts at all levels of complexity.

This demand makes it essential to propose, starting from the Bachelor's degree level, an educational offering oriented towards this discipline.

The AI degree course aims to train professionals with specific methodological and technological skills, capable of understanding and exploiting various aspects of AI and applying this knowledge in different application contexts.

AI students will learn to conceive, analyze, and design AI software systems, acquiring solid logical-mathematical foundations and in-depth knowledge of models, tools, and computer technologies.

Particular attention is given to data analysis and management, even when dealing with large volumes.

In addition, interdisciplinary skills related to legal, ethical, environmental, and psychological implications of AI are provided.

Graduates students in AI will enter the world of work with significant technical skills, such as the ability to work in teams, high critical autonomy, and specific conceptual and technological competencies in AI.

What do you learn?

During the three years, students will acquire knowledge on fundamental topics for artificial intelligence in the areas of mathematics, computer science, and cognitive sciences.

The program provides a basic education on logical-mathematical and probabilistic tools, as well as fundamental aspects of computer science, to address more specific AI topics with scientific and methodological rigor.

Legal and ethical knowledge is also provided for a more conscious use of the acquired skills and abilities.

Internship activities in public or private companies are planned, to experiment with the use of AI in a working environment.

What can you do with it?

The Bachelor's Degree Course prepares students for the professions of “Programming Technicians” and “Application Experts”.

More specifically, the program trains professionals to become "Experts in Artificial Intelligence applied to data analysis" and "Experts in Artificial Intelligence applied to interaction." Meetings with industry professionals are organized as opportunities to guide students in their future career choices and provide them with additional technical and professional tools.

Graduates will be capable of designing and implementing innovative solutions based on AI techniques and models in both the public and private sectors.

Graduates in Artificial Intelligence can enroll in all Master's degree programs in the LM-18 class without the burden of additional educational requirements.

Specifically, the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science offers an international Master's degree program in "Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence." This program caters to the growing demand for professionals and specialists with advanced scientific and technological skills, with the aim of contributing to the advancement of computer science in both fundamental and various applied aspects.

Notably, the Master's degree in "Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence" offers a curriculum that can be tailored to three specializations: 1 Artificial Intelligence, 2 Cybersecurity, and 3 Methodologies.
