What knowledge will I acquire with this Degree?

During your academic training period, you will acquire the fundamental theoretical knowledge, as well as the practical skills and abilities necessary for the professional practice of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The degree in Artificial Intelligence will provide you with the appropriate preparation whether you want to develop your work activity in the field of business or if your idea is to be a researcher in this exciting area of ​​knowledge.

AI is a branch of Computer Science with connections to other branches of knowledge such as Mathematics, Statistics, Ethics or Legislation, to name a few examples. For this reason, in the first courses you will acquire fundamental knowledge and skills on which you will build others later. Specifically, in the first courses you will learn the fundamentals of computer programming, the mathematical foundations of AI, the history of AI, the ethical and legal aspects of our discipline, the fundamentals of computer architecture, operating systems and databases.

In the following courses, you will expand your knowledge in computer programming, you will learn to develop algorithms and machine learning methods, to design intelligent agents, to model expert knowledge, to develop ambient intelligence systems and autonomous systems, to make programs that interpret what read (natural language processing) or what they see (artificial vision), among many other issues.

In the final year, you will decide in which areas to specialize, choosing between optional subjects. In addition, you will put into practice the knowledge acquired during these years of academic training in a Final Degree Project and you will have the opportunity to demonstrate your worth in a first approach to the work environment through the development of External Internships.

Where will I be able to work when I graduate?

At present, the field of application of Artificial Intelligence has transcended practically all the fields of human knowledge, no matter how disparate they may be. Thus, Artificial Intelligence is applied to the development of computer tools in the field of medicine, logistics and planning, security, leisure, art, law, to name just a few. Most of the large companies dedicated to software development demand highly qualified professionals in Artificial Intelligence. Likewise, the explosive demand for computer solutions that require Artificial Intelligence has led to the creation of a network of incipient companies (spin-offs y startups) of a high technical qualification that specialize in the design and implementation of this type of solutions. Therefore, it is foreseeable that you will have access to a wide job offer in the national and international business fabric. In addition, public institutions and governments are increasingly aware of the need to have specific and professional programs dedicated to the development of Artificial Intelligence, so it is also expected that you will have the opportunity to develop your profession within the administrations. public, universities, research centers or centers of technological development and innovation.

Is this Degree official according to the regulations required by the European Higher Education Area?

Yes (final verification report is attached), the implementation of the degree will be done progressively, starting the first year in the academic year 2022-23.

The final verification report turned out FAVORABLE

What subject areas will I address in this grade?

The subjects of modules 1, 2 and 3 are included in the following subjects:

Recommended Income Profile

The recommended admission profile is that of students who have completed the Baccalaureate in the Scientific-Technological modality and who have enjoyed these studies, since the contents of the degree belong to a greater extent to the disciplines of Computer Engineering and New Technologies and the Mathematical Sciences. On the other hand, we are sure that this is a suitable degree for you if you are a lover of challenges who enjoy solving practical problems and have communication skills, group work, a desire to excel and a critical spirit.

Objectives 

According to Marvin Minsky, considered one of the fathers of the discipline, Artificial Intelligence "is the science of making machines do things that would require intelligence if they had been done by a human." In other words, Artificial Intelligence is a branch of Computer Science whose objective is to develop computer applications for solving problems that require intelligence. The fundamental objective of the Degree in Artificial Intelligence from the Rey Juan Carlos University is to train highly qualified professionals in the conception, planning and development of systems, services and applications in the field of Artificial Intelligence, who become part of the labor market in an Productive from the moment you join. Likewise, it is intended that the degree can also provide initial training to future scientists specialized in Artificial Intelligence.

General information collection plan

Improvement actions

The Quality Assurance System of the Rey Juan Carlos University establishes that the degree's Quality Assurance Commission will annually analyze the information derived from the degree's indicators and prepare a report that will include improvement plans if the results so indicate.

Renewal of accreditation

The renewal of the accreditation represents the culmination of the implementation process of the official Bachelor's and Master's degrees registered in the Register of Universities, Centers and Degrees (RUCT). The renewal of the accreditation of official bachelor's and master's degrees is organized in three phases: self-assessment report, external visit and final assessment.

In the first phase, the university describes and assesses the status of the degree with respect to the established criteria and guidelines. The result is the Self-Assessment Report (IA) that is presented. The second and third phases are carried out by a group of evaluators external to the evaluated title.”
