Coding your future by joining the AI revolution
People can be at the forefront of the ‘Artificial Intelligence (AI) revolution’ by studying Computer Science at the University of Bradford.
With AI transforming how we work, learn, and communicate, the demand for skilled professionals is soaring. The University’s Computer Science programmes equip students with the knowledge, technical skills and adaptability needed to thrive in this evolving landscape.
Places are available for Computer Science at the University of Bradford through Clearing.
Dr Paul Trundle, Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Bradford, said: “The AI revolution is already upon us, and it will inevitably change the way we live and work forever.
“From intelligent robotic home helpers, to AI agents that independently learn, communicate and complete tasks on our behalf, the world will never be the same again.
“At the forefront of this revolution are computer scientists; we are already building AI- supported tools, training deep-learning neural networks and embedding digital ethics across every industry, in every job, across the world.
“Computer Science is a degree that will secure your future and empower you with the knowledge and skills you need to thrive in an increasingly digital world.”
