The course draws from the expertise of the Intelligent Systems and Nano-science Research Group at York. This course will consolidate your knowledge of fundamental principles and introduce you to more advanced concepts. Youll experience a large team software engineering project, as well as managing a substantial individual project, allowing you to develop the knowledge and skills required to become a leader in the industry. With an increased choice of advanced option modules, youll have the opportunity to engage with world-class researchers and work with our latest innovative technology. All of our courses are available with a year in industry, which gives you the opportunity to gain vital experience in the workplace and find out more about your career options.
