What you will study
Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence at DTU is a Master of Science programme taught in English. It sits where digital media technologies meet the people who use them: online video, music streaming, smartphone apps, social networks and the data these platforms generate.
What you study
The programme gives you a deep understanding of the digital media technologies behind modern platforms and the business aspects around them. The focus is on building strong technical competencies so you can develop new types of interaction between people and software, rather than being limited by whatever technology happens to be new.
You can take specialisations in AI and Cognition, Machine Learning at Scale, Data Science, Human-Computer Interaction, Visual Computing or Computer Games. The programme names concrete areas of work: game design, personalisation of media content, and smartphone apps that use sensors to model how we perceive the surrounding environment.
How the programme is organised
You have ample scope to work on your own projects and to join DTU research projects. Examples given are developing intelligent apps using the built-in sensors in smartphones, modelling social network interaction, and designing new interaction between people and software. You can also join media projects focused on computer graphics and computer game design, and work on emerging issues in interdisciplinary settings outside DTU.
DTU also offers an Industry Master of Science option across all its master's programmes, where you combine work and study. Honours programmes are available as a more demanding study track.
Who it suits
This programme suits someone who wants to shape how people and software interact, not just build models. If you are interested in games, media personalisation, sensor data from phones or social network analysis, the specialisations and project work line up with that. You should be comfortable with technical work and curious about the business side of digital media.
