Advanced training to boost your technological future

Through 11 modules you will learn about:

1. AI and its application in industry

From the beginning of the master's degree, our students acquire a deep understanding of what AI is, its different types (narrow AI and general AI), and its applications in today's job market. This first module allows students to learn about the fundamental principles of AI and the different approaches that exist to implement it, such as symbolic AI, rule-based AI, and AI based on neural networks and machine learning.

2. Machine learning

Machine learning is at the heart of many AI applications. At UDIT, our students learn the fundamental techniques and algorithms that allow machines to "learn" from data. Topics in this module include:

Linear and Logistic Regression: Basics of supervised learning.

Neural Networks and Deep Learning: Advanced techniques for complex pattern recognition.

Clustering and classification: Fundamentals for organising and categorising large volumes of data.

👇Clustering: what is it and what is it used for ?

Throughout the course, you will use tools such as TensorFlow and PyTorch, giving students hands-on experience in implementing machine learning algorithms.

3. Computer Vision

Computer vision is an ever-expanding field with applications in areas such as security, commerce and augmented reality. In this module, students learn techniques for systems to be able to process and interpret visual information. Topics such as object recognition, image analysis and pattern detection in video are addressed through practical exercises, so that students develop computer vision applications in real projects.

4. Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Natural language processing (NLP) enables machines to understand and interpret human language, with applications as diverse as chatbots, search engines and automatic translators. This module teaches students the fundamentals of computational linguistics and text analysis using NLP techniques, covering topics such as:

Tokenisation and lexical analysis: decomposing text into actionable items.

Language modelling: Creating word prediction systems.

Sentiment analysis: Understanding and classifying emotions in texts.

Students will use advanced tools such as NLTK and spaCy to build and train language models, and apply them to real text analysis projects.

5. Innovation and Entrepreneurship

This module allows students to explore how AI transforms business and how it can be integrated into different areas to optimise processes and improve decision-making. Topics such as predictive analytics, process automation and business intelligence (BI) are addressed.

6. Ethics and responsibility in AI

As AI becomes part of our daily lives, it is crucial to consider its ethical and legal implications. This module addresses issues such as data privacy, fairness in algorithms and inclusive design considerations in AI applications. Students analyse case studies and reflect on how to create fair and responsible systems, understanding the importance of respecting privacy and users' rights.

7. Real projects and internships in leading companies in the sector

At UDIT, we believe in the importance of our students having a practical experience that prepares them for the challenges of the working world. Therefore, the Master's in AI includes real projects and internships in technology companies, which allows our students to work side by side with experts in the sector, solve real problems and learn to face technical and organisational challenges in a professional context.
