This autumn, we are offering two courses in artificial intelligence (AI). We recommend taking both, although it is not mandatory. Each course is worth 2.5 credits. The courses are open to all students, regardless of their study programme.
- Introduction to Artificial Intelligence Technology (IKT115-1): Learn about machine learning and AI development. Explore the possibilities and limitations of artificial intelligence. If you choose to take only one course, we recommend this one.
- Introduction to Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence (IS-117-1): Dive into AI from a human-centred perspective. Reflect on the ethical, business, and legal aspects of AI. This course will be taught in English.
