Tweedejaarsproject BSc KI

Second Year Project Artificial Intelligence

Studiewijzer 2021/2022

Globale inhoud

In this course, students will work on an AI-related project in a small group of 3 to 5 students. In order to foster interaction with the "outside world", the projects are done in collaboration with companies whose commercial activities are connected to AI. Each company involved in the course will define a project related to a real product, application, or problem that the company needs to deal with. You and your team will work full time for one month on one of these projects, jointly supervised by a member of the host company (the client) and a researcher at the university (the academic mentor).

The list of participating companies and projects on offer varies every year. Before the project period starts, the list of available projects will be made available and  students will be asked to submit their preferences. On the basis of these preferences, the coordinator will allocate individual students to projects with a maximum of 5 students per project.
