Artificial Intelligence
All students study a core programme of compulsory courses (30 ECTS), do a research training (6 ECTS) and a master's thesis (24 ECTS). Students choose one out of four specializations: Artificial Intelligence, Multimedia, Software Languages and Software Engineering or Data Management and Analytics. 30 credits should be spent to mandatory and optional courses within the chosen specialization. The 24 remaining optional credits can be taken within the specialization or from other specializations. Finally, 6 credits can be freely chosen from any master level VUB course. This brings the total to 120 credits. The master thesis as well as the research training need to be related to the chosen specialization.
