History

 

The provision of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Kotli (UoK) began in mid-2020. This also made the university pioneers in AI in Azad Kashmir and one of pioneers in Pakistan. The Bachelor of Artificial programme started in the 2020/21 academic session, with an initial intake of 43 students.

About

Artificial Intelligence Department at University of Kotli is centered around the study and development of intelligent, autonomous systems. Our research focuses on practice and theoretical foundations as well as applications of AI in  building intelligent systems across core areas concerned with the development of systems that exhibit behavior typically associated with human cognition, such as perceiving, learning, communicating, reasoning, making decisions, and acting in a physical and social environment. Department primarily focuses on machine learning, natural language, speech processing, computer vision, robotics, autonomous agents and multi-agent systems, human-machine interactions and collectives, cognition, computer vision and imaging, audio-visual signal processing and human modeling and security.

Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence BS(AI)

 

 

The BS(AI) program is a four-year program fully taught in English giving the students an in-depth knowledge they need to transform large and complex scenarios into actionable decisions. The program and its curriculum focus on how complex inputs such as knowledge, vision, language and huge databases can be used to make decisions to enhance human capabilities.

Program Length

  • Minimum 4 Years, Maximum 7 Years
  • 8-14 semesters
  • Final Year Project in 7th & 8th semesters
  • Project proposal and software requirements specification will have to be submitted and defended in the 7th semester.

 

Admission Requirements

Eligibility
