Overview

This course has been designed to introduce a variety of fundamental perspectives on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Data Science (DS) to build future leaders in public and private sectors who are able to understand and deal with future challenges particularly post Covid-19.

The course will explain how AI is about designing and building computer-based artifacts to make various human tasks easier. Participants will realise how much AI has the potential to make our lives better in almost all fields.
