Studying Artificial Intelligence
Why is AI so important?
AI is not science fiction. It is happening now and changing our world. The allocation of AI resources leads to faster work and better decisions. Those who ignore it will fall behind.
AI plans meetings, conducts research and writes code. At the same time, there are questions about fair and safe use. AI is also a powerful tool for making the world a better place. Think of AI that helps doctors cure diseases, or smart systems that protect the environment.
At Fontys, we are keeping a close eye on these developments. We see that, especially now, there is a need for people who understand AI and think about its impact on people and society. That is why we train students who are ready for this future.
Do you want to work on technology that really makes a difference?
At Fontys, you can study AI in various bachelor's, Dual degree, master's and part-time study programmes.
Students on studying AI
Which AI study programmes can you study at Fontys?
In the Artificial Intelligence specialisation within the Bachelor's in ICT, you will learn to build smart systems that learn and make choices independently. For example, you will work on projects involving machine learning, data analysis and various forms of generative AI. This will enable you to gradually develop into an AI specialist. You can also combine AI with other specialisations within the Bachelor's programme in ICT. For example, you will discover how AI improves the user experience, makes business processes smarter, and how artificial intelligence and cyber security influence each other.
