Study Details: MSc 1 year full-time
Artificial Intelligence and data-driven approaches to decision-making are transforming almost every industry and policy sector. These technologies have already generated extraordinary benefits. However, they bring with them new challenges and new threats, and raise new questions about the limits of their responsible and ethical use. These questions have acquired fresh urgency and importance since the emergence of so-called ‘frontier AI’ models, which underpin powerful applications including Chat GPT.
To date, universities have primarily sought to train data scientists or IT lawyers rather than to equip legal specialists with a proper understanding of these technologies and their potential social, democratic and ethical risks. Our MSc will equip law graduates and current practising legal professionals with the skills needed to identify these issues and respond thoughtfully to the regulatory challenges they raise.
Applicants should have a good Law Honours degree or considerable comparable professional experience and have an understanding of applied mathematics via A in A-Level Mathematics (or equivalent).
