Artificial Intelligence

The Artificial Intelligence Master's programme at Radboud University is highly interdisciplinary and has a strong cognitive and human-centered focus. We use computational modelling as the central methodology to understand naturally intelligent systems, build artificially intelligent systems and improve the interactions between humans and AI. You can choose one of two specialisations that best match your interests and ambitions: Human Centered Intelligent Systems or Machine Learning and Neural Computing.

Specialisations

  • Human Centered Intelligent Systems

    Master's specialisation of Artificial Intelligence | Joint programme optional EN

    Are you interested in human-centered technology for a responsible future of society? This interdisciplinary AI Master's specialisation studies and develops intelligent systems, from medical AI, to artificial agents, to human-machine interfaces.

  • Machine Learning and Neural Computing

    Master's specialisation of Artificial Intelligence EN

    Are you driven to push the boundaries of artificial intelligence and understand the inner workings of the brain? This AI Master’s specialisation enables you to explore both. Shape the future of AI by developing smarter AI systems and building advanced brain-inspired technologies.

Please note: We are sorry to inform you that due to unforeseen circumstances, the new master’s specialisation Computational Cognitive Science will not yet start in the upcoming academic year 2026-2027 or the year after. That means that for the next two years we will offer two master's programmes: the master's specialisation Human Centered Intelligent Systems (HCIS) and the master's specialisation Machine Learning & Neural Computing (MLNC). 

If you have questions about this decision, please contact:
Susanne van Helden (susanne.vanhelden [at] ru.nl) programme manager School of AI.

Pre-Master's

Do you want to follow one of the specialisations in Artificial Intelligence, but are you not fully equipped to do so? The pre-Master's programme in either Human Centered Intelligent Systems or Machine Learning and Neural Computing offers you the possibility to bridge the gap between your previous education and your desired AI Master's specialisation.
