Course Overview

The Bachelor (Hons) of Science in Artificial Intelligence at Kings University College is a forward-looking, technically advanced undergraduate degree that provides students with a thorough grounding in the intelligent systems and data-driven technologies that are transforming every industry sector on earth. Delivered over three years with a Capstone Project and industrial training in Year 3, this MQA-accredited programme covers the full AI technology stack — from foundational programming, data structures, and operating systems through to machine learning, deep learning, generative AI, natural language processing, computer vision, reinforcement learning, cloud computing, and big data systems.

Choosing to study artificial intelligence in Malaysia at Kings University College means entering one of the fastest-growing and highest-value technology disciplines at a critical moment in the sector’s development. Malaysia’s government has identified AI as a strategic national priority, with significant investment in the Malaysia Digital Economy Blueprint driving demand for AI-qualified professionals across fintech, healthcare, logistics, manufacturing, public services, and the broader technology sector. Kings’ Bachelor of Science in AI is designed to position graduates at the forefront of this transformation.

Year 1 builds the computational and mathematical foundations — including programming fundamentals, discrete mathematics, computer architecture, data structures, probability and statistics, operating systems, and an introduction to agents and cognitive science alongside an Introduction to AI. Year 2 advances into the core AI disciplines: machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, generative AI, natural language processing, computer vision, responsible AI and ethics, data intelligence, and next-generation systems development. Year 3 applies this knowledge through a Capstone Project, advanced networking, cloud computing, AI-enabled enterprise automation, big data systems, software development, and industrial training.
