This programme is intended to respond to a growing skills shortage in research and industry for engineers with a high level of training in the analysis and interpretation of images and video. It covers both low-level image processing and high-level interpretation using state-of-the-art machine learning methodologies. In addition, it offers high-level training in programming languages, tools and methods that are necessary for the design and implementation of practical computer vision systems. You will be taught by world- class researchers in the fields of multimedia analysis, vision-based surveillance, and structure from motion and human motion analysis. Aside from your lectures, you will be working on cutting-edge, live research projects, gaining hands-on experience. All modules are examined through a combination of coursework and written examinations taken in May/June. To obtain an MSc, you must gain passes in six of the eight modules taken with an overall average of 50 per cent. In addition to the above, the MSc requires that a satisfactory individual project be completed. If you do not pass the written examinations you will only be allowed to attempt the project after passing examinations the following May. Your skills and knowledge will be valuable in all industries that require intelligent processing and interpretation of image and video. This includes industries in directly related fields, such as multimedia indexing and retrieval (e.g., Google, Microsoft), motion capture (e.g., Vicon), media production (e.g., Sony, Technicolor, Disney), medical imaging, security and defence (e.g., Qinetiq), robotics, and industries in related areas that require good knowledge of machine learning, signal processing and programming.
