Do you have a logical mindset and a burning passion for the application of new technologies? In this bachelor’s degree programme you will learn software development with the opportunity to specialise in one of two study tracks: Intelligent Robotics or Data Processing and Analytics. By the time you graduate, you will have a solid understanding of the interaction between programming and artificial intelligence. You will know how to design and develop web apps, build different kinds of cloud-based services, and much more. The studies focus on artificial intelligence, the development and application of data analysis, information visualisation, and prognosis. From day one, you will build practical skills for the workplace, working with web, mobile, and cloud platforms in software development. You will be working in close collaboration with the industry, and gain valuable work experience during your studies thanks to our internships. Please note: As this is a new degree programme, Arcada will offer only first to third year courses in the academic year 2027-2028. This means that it is not possible to apply for a transfer of credits for fourth year courses. If you have any questions, please contact admissions@arcada.fi.
