Overview
The Human Inspired AI course at University of Cambridge offers a foundational module in human-inspired AI and several elective modules that students can select according to their interests and learning needs. Elective modules include skills modules covering technical and computational skills. These are useful for students with preliminary technical training who wish to consolidate skills. For students with a strong computational background, they can offer the opportunity for more advanced technical and interdisciplinary methods training. Elective modules also include specialist modules that offer learning opportunities in areas such as fundamental human-level AI, social and interactive AI, cognitive AI, creative AI, health and global AI, and responsible AI. The course also includes a period of supervised research where students work individually with supervisors to produce a research dissertation.
The MPhil is directed by the Centre for Human-Inspired Artificial Intelligence (CHIA) within the Institute for Technology and Humanity (ITH). CHIA is dedicated to investigating the innovative ways in which human and machine intelligence can be combined to yield AI which is capable of contributing to social and global progress. It offers an excellent interdisciplinary environment where students can explore technical, human, ethical, applied and industrial aspects of AI.
The course aims to equip students with the skills and knowledge to contribute critically, practically and constructively to interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary research, scholarship and practice in human-inspired AI. It introduces students from diverse backgrounds to technical and research skills and specialist knowledge of AI applications and issues from a range of academic disciplines and provides them with the opportunity to carry out focused research under close supervision by domain experts at the University.
The programme will equip the next generation of researchers and leaders in AI by:
providing an overview of current interdisciplinary research and challenges in the development of human-inspired AI.
providing the critical tools to engage with the forefront of the academic knowledge, methods and applications in this area.
developing the skills and abilities to identify, address and approach practical interdisciplinary research challenges.
supporting students to construct a thorough understanding of the technical, ethical, human and human aspects of AI.
developing the ability and initiative to identify, address and approach relevant challenges across sectors and society.
Students admitted for the MPhil can apply to continue as PhD students in Human-Inspired Artificial Intelligence within CHIA, or for PhD courses within other relevant departments.For details of the process for applying to do a PhD, and the standard required, students should consult the CHIA website.
