Why study artificial intelligence here
Where AI is needed
Fintech, telecom and public services are digitising fast.
Code and mathematics
Algorithms, probability and programming, not theory alone.
An LMD diploma
A three-year Licence that opens onto a Master.
Built for the region
Framed around West African firms, networks and institutions.
Course structure
Built on the LMD system, the Licence runs over six semesters and 180 ECTS credits. Year one is a common informatique foundation; you begin specialising in artificial intelligence in the second year and fully through the third, which closes with an applied research project and an internship or professional project.
Year one
Shared foundation
Year one is the common informatique foundation shared across the field: algebra, discrete mathematics and analysis, algorithms and data structures, and a first course in programming and web development.
