Double Degree with Artificial Intelligence

The Double Degree Programme in Bachelor of Computing (Artificial Intelligence) and Bachelor of Science (Mathematics) is designed for students with a strong interest in the mathematical foundations that underpin machine learning and artificial intelligence. The programme emphasises core mathematical principles—including calculus, linear algebra, and probability and statistics—and their essential role in AI applications such as data-driven decision-making, perceptual understanding, and real-world action. Students will develop a deep appreciation of how mathematical theory informs and strengthens AI methodologies, from optimisation techniques to game-theoretic algorithms such as minimax.

Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics are deeply interconnected disciplines, and their intersection drives innovation across fields such as financial engineering, autonomous systems, medical diagnostics, and scientific research. By integrating these highly complementary areas, the programme fosters interdisciplinary learning and equips students with both rigorous analytical training and practical computational skills. Graduates will be well prepared for research and industry roles, ready to tackle complex challenges and contribute to advancements at the forefront of technology and science.

This double degree programme is jointly offered by the School of Computing and the Department of Mathematics for students reading major in Mathematics only. Students reading major in Quantitative Finance, Data Science & Economics and Data Science & Analytics should instead follow the guidelines for “student-designed DDP“, which may have different rules on course overlap.
