Master of Science (MSc) degrees in the Division of Informatics
at the University of Edinburgh
The Division of Informatics offers three 1 year courses
in different topics in Informatics:
1. MSc in Artificial Intelligence, whose primary focus is on
development and understanding of intelligent computational processes
for the benefit of both creating useful artifacts and helping better
understand intelligence (human or otherwise). The course contains
five themes: Foundations of AI, Intelligent Robotics, Knowledge-based
Systems, Natural Language Processing, and Non-Symbolic AI.
2. MSc in Cognitive Science and Natural Language. This MSc is
concerned with computational, formal and experimental approaches
to understanding cognition and natural language. In Cognitive Science,
the disciplines of formal linguistics, psychology, neuroscience and
philosophy are brought together in different kinds of computational
frameworks. This MSc is particularly concerned with how language is
represented and processed.
3. The MSc in Computer Science contains three themes. The Advanced
Computer Systems theme embraces the theory and practice of designing
programmable systems. The Systems Level Integration theme teaches
the principles underlying the design of integrated software and
hardware systems in silicon. The Theoretical Computer Science theme
introduces students to core areas of theoretical Computer Science and
to the technologies through which theory-based tools are implemented.
Applicants should specify which course(s) they are applying for and
which themes are of interest in order of priority.
From October to April students attend taught modules.
During the period May - September inclusive, each student
undertakes a major practical project, theoretical dissertation or
piece of experimental research under the supervision of a
member of academic staff. The projects can involve industrial
collaboration and may be proposed by the student.
Together, the three courses receive over 40 studentships from the
UK government, which support about 1/2 of the students on the courses.
In general, students should have a good BS/BSc degree (or equivalent)
in an appropriate topic, plus other skills appropriate to the particular
MSc course.

(about 40 across the three courses).
In general, students should have a good BS/BSc degree (or equivalent)
in an appropriate topic, plus other skills approporate to the particular
MSc course.
