MSc Artificial Intelligence for Media

• Machine Learning for Media Production: You'll gain a critical understanding of the theory involved in the machine learning and existing ML SDK tools and techniques for media production, and to enable you to develop your problem-solving and strategy development skills.

• Data Mining on Multimedia Data: You'll be introduced to the algorithms and computational paradigms that allow computers to find patterns and regularities in datasets, predict and forecast, and improve performance through interaction with data. The data mining processing includes data selection, cleaning, coding, using different statistical and machine learning techniques, and visualization of the generated structures.

• Software Engineering for Media: The unit aims to equip you with the knowledge to select the correct programming languages, application programming interfaces, and techniques to solve serious learning problems within media using a Test Driven approach. The application of standard software engineering techniques is encouraged to enable you to work as part of a development team, solving complex technical issues in modern computer animation.  

• Media Data Analytics and Modelling: You'll learn about the science of analyzing media data (such as images, video, natural language, sound, 3D models, and motions) to reveal features and metrics to make conclusions about the information it contains.

• Group Project: Working with students from across the NCCA Master's courses, you'll present a substantial piece of work with technical/creative content. 

• Masterclass: You'll explore the professional world of the artificial intelligence industry and be exposed to advanced production issues of professional practice, providing you with the theoretical and practical knowledge of specialist artificial intelligence techniques.

• Masters Project: You'll plan and execute a significant project professionally utilizing relevant techniques and undertake a critical analysis of your work. You'll focus on a specific problem in media production which has the potential to be automated by the latest artificial intelligence technology.

  The Master's Degree Show

  The Master's Degree Show is the culmination of one year's work for the Master's NCCA courses. This is your opportunity to showcase your talent to industry professionals and potential employers.

You can undertake a three-month placement during the Master’s Portfolio unit, providing an opportunity to apply your acquired knowledge and skills in the workplace. You are required to find your order; however, our Careers & Employability Service and your faculty placements office are on hand to support you.
