Aims and Learning Outcomes

Aims

The programme is designed to educate students about the fundamental principles and practical applications of AI and business analytics techniques, especially in domain of business, so that they can effectively apply AI tools and techniques when problem solving, as well as analyse business problems by using data analytic skills and AI techniques when decision making. Furthermore, not only will students learn to identify and verify the effectiveness of various AI and business analytic models, they will also develop solutions to business problems by using computational and mathematical modelling methods in AI and business analytics. Graduates will be able to meet and exceed the expectations of their current and future employers by working in different roles (e.g., business analysts, data analysts, project managers, AI consultants/experts, and data scientists) for various organisations. The programme prepares graduates (i.e., AI consultants/experts, data analysts, business analysts, data scientists, and IT professionals) for professional IT examinations and further studies at the doctoral level.
