ITECH7001 Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
This course exposes students to the theory and practical methods associated with the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Students will gain an appreciation for the philosophy, history and applications of artificial intelligence. They will gain an understanding of the functioning of core algorithms within AI, and skills in the application of software tools which implement those algorithms. Areas covered will include knowledge representation, logic and automated reasoning, search, and modelling uncertainty, with a particular emphasis on techniques associated with various areas of machine learning, including unsupervised, supervised and reinforcement learning. Students will also be required to consider the ethics associated with the development and deployment of AI technology within society, and understand the importance of factors such as fairness, safety and explainability.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
