Why this postgraduate course?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is at the core of the industrial revolution 4.0, based on the automatic processing of data. The availability of large volumes of data and computational resources with affordable costs has made possible the training of deep neural networks, a powerful tool in machine learning. Multiple companies are already applying this data-driven programming paradigm, while in parallel, public administrations are also developing strategic plans to lead the sector. However, the same challenge repeats everywhere: the scarcity of professionals capable of understanding the potential and opportunities of these tools, as well as their implementation in a practical and scalable fashion.

According to the AI Index from Stanford University, in 2021, global private AI investment was over $90B, more than double the total private investment in 2020. The number of newly funded AI companies in 2021 was 746. This has resulted in a significant increase of job postings which, in the US, grew from 0.3% in 2012 to 0.9% of total jobs posted in 2021. In Spain, the amount of hiring has doubled compared to its average during the 2015-2016 period. These positions require knowledge on natural language processing, computer vision and robotics, applications that have recently experienced great advances thanks to deep learning. In terms of public funding, the EU funding for research and innovation for AI has risen to €1.5 billion between 2017 and 2019, i.e. a 70% increase compared to the previous period. This context explains why the job analysis portal glassdoor.com has chosen data scientist and machine learning engineers among as the best jobs in the United States during the last years, being the skills in deep learning the most demanded.

The postgraduate course in Artificial Intelligence with Deep Learning aims to satisfy this demand of professionals thanks to an experienced teaching team with world-class reputation in both industry and academia. Course instructors develop deep learning-powered systems for many customers, and also lead ground-breaking research with regular publications in top scientific venues such as the Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS), the Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), and the International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR). With their support, the students in our program become proficient in both the PyTorch software framework for deep learning, and the theoretical basis necessary to understand the opportunities and limitations.

Testimonials

Testimonials

I was looking for training to go more deeply into the area of deep learning and to be able to enter the labour market. My starting point was a completely theoretical profile, as my background is in mathematics. From the postgraduate degree in Artificial Intelligence with Deep Learning, I would highlight on the one hand its practical approach, and on the other, the wide range of content it covers. The course also works on both classic and modern developments of some ideas. This training has opened up a field with new opportunities for me, since this area has considerable impact in the current situation. The final project was very interesting. It was about the segmentation of medical images. The truth is that when I started the postgraduate course I couldn't imagine being able to do something that was that complex. In short, I would recommend this training because of its applied approach focused on the world of work, in which you learn the mechanics behind deep learning, and acquire the tools you need to put it into practice.

Núria Sánchez Alumni of the postgraduate course in Artificial Intelligence with Deep Learning

Testimonials
Artificial Intelligence is one of the latest technological topics, in and out of the professional world. As well as being personally interested in it, as a member of the digitisation team of an industrial company, I have to keep up with the times. If I can also get detailed technical knowledge, this is great added value both for the company I work for, and for my personal professional project. This is precisely what the postgraduate in Deep Learning brought me: a first immersion in this field of Artificial Intelligence, and the possibility of going further into its different areas, depending on my interest. The fact that the students included professionals from different sectors gave me new points of view, especially when identifying potential projects in which to apply AI. With the knowledge I gained, I have the information to promote the use of the technology within the company to optimise processes and even devise new business paths.

Testimonials
From my position at CatSalut doing data analysis in public health, I wanted to learn more about how to apply statistics to obtain valuable information from large amounts of data, especially to help medical diagnosis. The postgraduate degree allowed me to solidly understand the bases of deep learning and the different branches in which it can be applied. It has a very practical aspect that allows you to read ready-made programs, modify them and create your own. The highly specialized teachers, together with the possibility of carrying out a deep learning project from scratch, contribute to achieving visible and real results. What I learned I have been able to apply in my professional career. In fact, I have been so encouraged that I will start a doctorate in this field, where I will apply artificial intelligence to generate medical images.
