Overview

The AI and Software Engineering program from Blekinge Institute of Technology is designed for students who want to master modern software engineering —including requirements engineering, software design, development, testing, and maintenance— while learning how to integrate AI into real software systems. You will learn to develop, integrate, and quality-assure AI components in software systems, and understand how AI can be used to make the entire development chain more efficient.

Key Facts

You will also explore how AI can strengthen software engineering, for example through AI-assisted code generation, intelligent testing, and optimisation. This makes the programme a strong choice whether you want to build reliable software systems with AI components or use AI to improve the tools and processes behind software development.You will study how AI and software engineering intersect in real projects and environments. You will learn how machine learning, data management, and MLOps are used in modern development settings, from requirements and design to testing, operations, and system improvement. The programme blends theory with practical projects in which you solve real-world challenges alongside industry partners.

Programme Structure

In the first year, you will develop a broad foundation in both AI and software engineering. You will study how data pipelines, software architecture, and AI models interact in modern development environments. You will learn how to engineer, develop, and integrate AI components in software systems, as well as how to use AI to improve development processes, analyse and structure data, and work in DevOps and MLOps settings.
In the second year, you will deepen your software engineering skills and learn how to assess approaches, tools, and solutions based on evidence and results. You will study how software systems evolve and are maintained over time and learn how to plan and carry out a research-oriented project using data, evidence, and established research practices.
