Overview
Course overview
The Level 5 Extended Diploma in Computing and Artificial Intelligence is presented by OVS Edu as a 240 credit pathway that brings Level 4 and Level 5 study together in one undergraduate route. It is designed as a 2 year degree pathway accelerator for learners who want to complete the equivalent of the first two years of a UK computing, artificial intelligence or data focused degree before progressing towards final year Top-Up study where accepted. The Level 5 stage develops practical and academic capability across digital transformation projects, professional communication, advanced statistics, information systems, artificial intelligence, data and language models, machine learning strategy, databases, data engineering and advanced computing project work.
