Residentials (3 credits)
There are 2 Residentials which are compulsory to all students:
DBAI Residential 1 is a mandatory orientation workshop scheduled for the beginning of the programme.
DBAI Residential 2 is a research workshop held normally after students have completed all the required subjects. The main purpose of the workshop is to give students an opportunity to present their thesis proposals and to prepare them for writing their theses.
DBAI Thesis (24 credits)
The DBAI Thesis comprises two parts: DBAI Thesis I and DBAI Thesis II. Students must pass the Compulsory subject, 1 Core subject, and at least 4 Elective subjects before beginning their theses. They need to integrate and apply what they have learned to critically and rigorously examine a topic of interest in the field of artificial intelligence and business intelligence. They are challenged to make an important contribution and/or provide innovative insights.
