Bachelor of Science in Design and Artificial Intelligence

About This Programme

The Bachelor of Science in Design and Artificial Intelligence (BScDAI) is an interdisciplinary program that brings together design, artificial intelligence, and digital technologies. The program combines studio-based learning with courses in design, computing, mathematics, and emerging technologies to prepare students for creative and technology-supported design practice across different fields. Innovation and entrepreneurship, sustainability, research and critical thinking, digital fluency, and community engagement are integrated throughout the curriculum and explored through studios, computing courses, entrepreneurship courses, ethics, visualization, and AI applications.

Course Highlights

• The curriculum encourages students to think systemically, work collaboratively, and apply computational and AI-based approaches within design processes. Through progressive studio experiences and technical coursework, students build skills in visualization, interaction design, prototyping, and data-informed design development. The program also highlights the ethical, social, and environmental responsibilities connected to the use of emerging technologies in design practice. The program promotes hands-on and interdisciplinary learning through studio projects, internships, and capstone experiences that connect design methods with contemporary digital and intelligent technologies.
