Bachelor of Applied Artificial Intelligence (Hons)
The Future of Every Industry Will Be Powered by AI. Build the Systems Behind It.
Artificial Intelligence is not the future. It is the present — reshaping how industries operate, how decisions are made, and how the world works. With UNIMY's Bachelor of Applied AI, you will not just learn about AI. You will build it, train it, deploy it, and optimise it — across machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, generative AI, cloud deployment, and AI governance.

Why This Programme Matters
This is the only degree at UNIMY dedicated entirely to applied AI — and it is built differently from every other computing programme. The curriculum is a complete three-year AI journey: Year 1 builds mathematical, programming and data foundations. Year 2 goes deep into ML, deep learning, computer vision, and decision support. Year 3 takes you to the frontier — MLOps, cloud and edge computing, generative AI, AI in cybersecurity, and AI governance and ethics.
- Global AI market growing at 36.6% CAGR — fastest-growing technology sector in history
- Malaysia's National AI Roadmap targets 10,000 AI professionals by 2027 — against a severe talent gap
- Less than 1% of Malaysian tech graduates hold a dedicated AI degree — one of the rarest qualifications available
- AI governance & ethics are now regulatory concerns globally — professionals who understand both dimensions are exceptional

AI-Native Learning Experience
This programme is not about AI. This programme is AI.
-
Dedicated AI & Innovation Labs
GPU-equipped labs, industry-standard ML platforms, cloud deployment tools & computer vision systems — purpose-built AI development environments from the first semester.
-
Generative AI as a Core Module
Generative AI is a Year 3 core module — covering large language models, diffusion models, and the architecture behind the tools reshaping the world in 2026. Not an elective. A requirement.
-
MLOps & Deployment
A dedicated Year 3 module covering the full lifecycle of taking AI models from development to production — the critical skill gap that most AI graduates are missing when they enter the workforce.
-
AI Governance & Ethics
As regulators worldwide move to govern AI systems, this dedicated module gives graduates the governance and ethics literacy that senior AI roles increasingly require — and most programmes do not teach.
