The University of Boras emphasizes that artificial intelligence (AI) knowledge is becoming crucial for engineers across industries. Magnus Bengtsson, associate professor and AI course instructor, highlights that AI—often better described as machine learning—is not magic but a mathematical tool for organizing and interpreting data. Engineers must be able to design new AI hardware solutions and apply algorithms effectively.
Courses at the University of Boras cover everything from basic mathematics and algorithm design to advanced topics such as convolutional neural networks and large language models. Practical applications include AI-assisted medical diagnostics, industrial automation, and interactive training avatars for healthcare education. Bengtsson stresses the importance of a strong foundational education, enabling professionals to fact-check AI outputs and make informed decisions.
