Computer Vision & Artificial Intelligence

Key programme benefits to future students

Students will learn about modern Deep Learning approaches to many machine and computer vision problems across a wide range of industry-focused applications, including object detection, 3D image processing and facial recognition.



This programme is co-designed with industry. It focuses on peer-to-peer and team learning, critical reflection and feedback incorporating coding challenges in AI and Computer Vision to give the student the skills to work confidently in this in-demand area.

Applicants for a Postgraduate Diploma programme must normally have a first or second-class Level 8 honours degree (NFQ or other internationally recognised equivalent) in a relevant or appropriate subject, or equivalent prior learning that is recognised by the University as meeting this requirement. Applicants must also satisfy the English Language Requirements* of the University. The University reserves the right to shortlist and interview applicants as deemed necessary.



The relevant or appropriate subjects include:

Your undergraduate degree must be in a numerate and relevant discipline, e.g., relevant engineering, computing, mathematics, science or technology discipline, or another discipline where significant math and computing elements can be demonstrated.



Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision are engineering subjects that require significant mathematical ability. In particular, Linear Algebra is a key mathematical tool that you will require to be successful in this programme. We strongly suggest that you examine the Linear Algebra Self-Assessment Worksheet. If you can comfortably answer the questions, then you will be well equipped for the programme.

1 year full-time, on-campus.
