Introduction

What is the true nature of intelligence? Is it simply learning processes, cognition models, natural language representation, and reasoning? Or is it more? The Master of Artificial Intelligence program trains a wide variety of students in all areas of knowledge-based technology and the wider application of that technology across multiple fields, including in the development of intelligent robots.

The Master of Artificial Intelligence program at KU Leuven explores and builds on the fascinating challenges of cognitive processes and models, natural language, and perception. For many years, it has provided an internationally acclaimed advanced study program in artificial intelligence. The multidisciplinary program trains students from a variety of backgrounds - including engineering, sciences, economics, management, psychology, and linguistics - in all areas of knowledge-based technology, cognitive science, and their applications. The one-year program, taught entirely in English, is the result of a collaboration between many internationally prominent research units from seven different faculties of the university. It allows you to focus on engineering and computer science, cognitive science, or speech and language technology.

The option Big Data Analytics is intended for graduates in Computer Science and trains them to become specialists in the analysis of Big Data. It instructs the students in Statistics, Machine Learning, Data Mining, and Advanced programming techniques for dealing with Big Data. It offers a range of application domains in Information Retrieval, Bio-Informatics, Computer Vision, and others.

The understanding of the principles of intelligence, the development of artificial intelligence, and its many applications in different areas requires a multi-disciplinary approach. The Master of Artificial Intelligence program is internationally and interdisciplinary oriented. It aims at educating students from a wide variety of different backgrounds. A basic introductory part of the program consists of fundamentals of artificial intelligence and a broadening course that the student selects from either cognitive science, philosophy of mind, and artificial intelligence, or privacy and big data. Specific to the option of big data analytics, it also contains course data and statistical modeling. Within the program, students have the choice between three options.
