Dear Sir /Ma’am,
I am very interested in the 1 year program for AI. I already have a PhD in mathematics so hopefully that would make me a good candidate. Can you please give me the total cost for the 1 year program and details on the Fall 2025 semester. All of the information I can find is on 2024.
Thank you,
Hello Dr. Bassing,
First of all, thank you for contacting us and your interest in SIAI’s MSc AI/Data Science programme.
If you already have done PhD in Math, there is a good chance that you can pass the admission examination that we may offer you a waiver, but since we have new policy for fair admission for MSc AI/Data Science, unfortunately we have to ask your participation for the admission examination in coming July
Plz take a look at the most recent notice for this academic year’s admission details. You can also find the admission exam details, which will be held in the 2nd weekend of July 2025.
We wish you the best of luck in the admission exam, and look forward to meeting you in Fall 2025.
Best regards,
David
My 2 cents for this.
Though many applicants see MSc AI/DS as the only option, we believe AI MBA’s technical track with some custom choiced courses from MSc would be a lot more rewarding choice for many of the qualified students like you.
The AI MBA’s tech track is not like a typical American MBA with basic high school math. It does cover advanced math concepts with much math jargon. You will still learn all required skill sets.
The MSc is like a PhD coursework with way too boring math, unless you are really into scientific research in this field for the future.
I guess you are looking for job applications, given that you already have a PhD. If so, I strongly recommend you to go for AI MBA’s tech track.
Check the MBA’s lecture notes. You will be surprised
