MSc Artificial Intelligence Governance and Ethics

University of Bristol · September 2027 · 1 year

Is this the right route?

Bristol's AI Governance and Ethics MSc studies law, regulation, political economy and social consequences through case work, with a dissertation or applied capstone. Its wider disciplinary entry differs from the technical AI MSc's numerate science and computing preparation. It suits an applicant comparing policy and governance questions, not someone seeking the same technical curriculum as a machine-learning course.
