Programme Introduction

The BSc(AI&EdTech) programme is designed to meet the growing societal demand for professionals in artificial intelligence and educational technology, while actively responding to the continuous evolution of education and other industries in the era of digitalization and intelligence. It aims to:

  1. provide students with fundamental knowledge and skills in artificial intelligence and educational technology;
  2. develop students’ ability in applying knowledge of artificial intelligence and educational technology appropriate to teaching and learning;
  3. build up students’ skills in using appropriate methods of artificial intelligence and educational technology to approach and solve real-world problems in educational contexts; and
  4. equip students with the capacity to conduct and evaluate educational projects supported by ethical use of artificial intelligence and educational technology.

Programme Features

Notes:
(1) Classes will be held in Tai Po Campus and Tseung Kwan O Study Centre / North Point Study Centre / Sports Centre / Kowloon Tong Satellite Study Centre as decided by the University. 
(2) Students admitted into this programme are required to visit the Greater Bay Area (GBA) and/or other parts of Mainland China. The programme may also require students to participate in other non-local learning experience for completion of the programme. While the visits are subsidised, students are required to contribute part of the estimated cost of the visits ("students’ contribution"), whereas any personal entertainment, meals expenses, travel document fee and personal insurance costs shall be at students’ own expense. The estimated cost of the visits and students’ contribution for students admitted to the coming cohort is yet to be available due to a variety of factors such as inflation of cost of the visits, trip duration, traveling expenses, the exchange rate, etc.

Internship / Overseas Study Opportunities

A unique feature of the programme is the inclusion of internships at technology companies and educational organisations. The internship provides students with hands-on experience, enabling them to apply their knowledge and skills in key areas such as machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, educational technology, and data analytics. Through this opportunity, students will tackle practical challenges, build professional networks, and gain insights into industry operations. This immersive experience enriches their knowledge and provides a solid foundation for their future careers in artificial intelligence and educational technology.

Career Prospects / Professional Recognition

Graduates of this programme will be well-prepared for technical and support roles across various sectors, such as AI engineers, data scientists, software engineers, e-learning developers, educational technology specialists, and teaching assistants. Graduates can pursue roles in the IT industry, schools, educational technology companies, IT-related positions in other industries, as well as government and non-governmental organisations.

With experience, graduates have the potential to advance to leadership roles such as systems analysts and educational technology managers. Additionally, the programme provides a strong foundation for graduates who are interested in pursuing postgraduate studies in artificial intelligence, education, or information technology.

What Our Student Says

dummy_1

I believe that enhancing the education sector with AI is a highly promising field. Education is relevant to everyone, and more effective AI-enhanced education can shape a generation of students. In this era of AI, such talents are needed both internationally and locally. During my two years of study, I have taken professional courses such as Programming, Calculus, Neural Networks, and Natural Language Processing, which are essential for understanding the AI field. The curriculum in my major is highly relevant, and I have also deepened my understanding of teaching through the excellent educational resources at the University. Over these two years, I have successfully completed two internships related to data science and communications, and I also participated in a Student Exchange Programme at Peking University. Additionally, the University offers many AI or data science-related seminars for students to participate in. I am very grateful for the learning opportunities provided by the BSc(AI&EdTech) programme, and in the future, I will continue to research the integration of AI and education.
