A successful career start with a degree in artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence is increasingly shaping our daily lives, changing the economy and making its way into the private sphere. For the winter semester 2022/23, the Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg (BTU) is establishing new degree programmes for all those who want to actively participate in this fascinating development. Autonomous driving, facial recognition or the metaverse, which links the real with virtual worlds, are inconceivable without artificial intelligence (AI) and the technology required for it (KIT). "Experts in AI and AI technology are increasingly in demand. But to reach expert level, you need to master a truly interdisciplinary combination of skills and knowledge from computer science, mathematics, ethics and psychology, to name just a few areas," says Prof. Dr. Douglas Cunningham, who recognised the need for specially trained personnel and helped develop the four new degree programmes.
