Professional Certificate in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence

The programme covers cutting-edge skills and business strategies in machine learning and artificial intelligence. It will enable you to:

• Understand foundational and advanced concepts and trends in artificial intelligence, as well as potential real-world implications

• Determine when machine learning is feasible and can be meaningfully applied to specific business challenges

• Leverage the power of data and evaluate common machine learning methods to improve predictive performance and refine decision-making strategies

• Develop and refine machine learning models using Python and industry standard tools to measure and improve performance

• Identify real-world problems and devise innovative solutions using machine learning models

For your capstone project, you will challenge your knowledge by developing and/or tuning a code base for a custom-designed machine learning competition modeled after the popular Black-Box Optimisation Challenge. You will practise the skills required for real-world model optimisations for a problem of your choice.

The competition takes place during the last 12 weeks of the programme, enabling you to see how tuning your code base improves optimisation on the competition’s leaderboard.

At the conclusion of the programme, you will have built a resume-boosting code base and amassed the skills needed to enter future competitions for prestige, cash prizes and career recognition.
