Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence

3 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

International University in Geneva

Program Overview

The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at IIG Geneva is designed for students who want to turn curiosity about technology into real technical expertise, covering everything from programming foundations to applied artificial intelligence. It suits ambitious students who enjoy logical thinking and innovation, and want to graduate ready for modern tech careers in software, data, and intelligent systems.

Curriculum Structure

Year 1:
You begin by building strong computing fundamentals through modules such as Introduction to Computer Science and Programming and Algorithms and Data Structures, learning how software is designed and how problems are solved logically. Alongside this, courses in Statistics for Data Analysis and Information Processing help you understand how data is collected, structured, and interpreted — essential groundwork for artificial intelligence studies.

Year 2:
In the second year, you move into real-world systems and emerging technologies. You study Database Systems to manage large data environments, Networks, Internet of Things and Cybersecurity to understand connected digital infrastructure, and Introduction to Machine Learning with Python, where you start training intelligent models. Project-based learning ensures you apply theory to practical technology challenges.

Year 3:
Your final year focuses on advanced application and professional readiness. Modules such as Applied Artificial Intelligence for the Workplace explore how intelligent systems are used in industry, while the Computer Science Capstone Project allows you to design and develop a complete tech solution. Students may also choose an optional dual-degree pathway adding international business and management modules through partner universities.

Focus Areas

Programming, algorithms, data science, machine learning, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud computing, databases, Internet of Things, applied computing projects.

Experiential Learning (Research, Projects, Internships etc.)

At IIG Geneva, students in the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence program don’t just learn about technology — they learn by creating it. From the first year, you build practical programming and data skills through project-based coursework, guided by industry-experienced faculty in small interactive classes where experimentation and problem-solving are encouraged. As you progress, learning moves from theory into applied artificial intelligence projects, system development, and collaborative technical challenges that reflect how real technology teams work — ensuring you graduate ready for professional tech environments:

Project-based coursework across programming, databases, machine learning, cybersecurity, and applied artificial intelligence
Final-year Computer Science Capstone Project, where students design and implement a complete technology solution
Hands-on programming in Python and modern development environments
Applied machine learning model development within AI modules
Network and cybersecurity simulation exercises in connected systems coursework
Collaborative group projects mirroring real software development teams
Modern computer laboratories for coding, data processing, and AI experimentation
