Course Description

The fields of graphics, vision and imaging increasingly rely on one another. This unique and timely MSc provides training in computer graphics, virtual reality, machine vision and imaging technology from world-leading experts, and enables students to specialise in any of these areas and gain an essential grounding in the others. What and how will I learn? Graduates will understand the basic mathematical principles underlying the development and application of new techniques in computer graphics and computer vision and will be aware of the range of algorithms and approaches available, and be able to design, develop and evaluate appropriate algorithms and methods for new problems and applications. Degree Structure Students undertake courses to the value of 180 credits. The programme consists of four core courses (60 credits), four optional courses (60 credits) and a research project (60 credits). Core Modules Mathematical Methods, Algorithmics and Implementation Image Processing Computer Graphics Research Methods Dissertationreport All students undertake an independent research project related to a problem of industrial interest or on a topic near the leading edge of research, which culminates in a 60-80 page dissertation. Options Machine Vision Graphical Models Virtual Environments Geometry of Images Advanced Modelling, Rendering and Animation Optimisation Information Processing in Medical Imaging Computational Photography and Capture Further details available on subject website: www-typo3.cs.ucl.ac.ukindex.php?id=1583 The programme is delivered through a combination of lectures and tutorials. Lectures are often supported by laboratory work with help from demonstrators. Student performance is assessed by unseen written examinations, coursework and a substantial individual project. Why should I study this degree at UCL? The Department of Computer Science at UCL contains some of the world s leading researchers in computer vision, virtual environments and computer graphics. Research activities include real-time photo-realistic rendering, mixed and augmented reality, face recognition, content-based image-database search, video-texture modelling, depth perception in stereo vision, colour imaging for industrial inspection, mapping brain function and connectivity and tracking for SLAM (simultaneous localisation and mapping). UCL Computer Science was one of the top rated departments in the country according to the UK government s recent research assessment exercise, and our graduates have some of the highest employment rates of any university in the UK. Your future career Graduates are ready for employment in a wide range of high-technology companies and will be able to contribute to maintaining and enhancing the UK s position in these important and expanding areas. The MSc provides graduates with the up-to-date technical skills required to support a wealth of research and development opportunities in broad areas of computer science and engineering, such as multimedia applications, medicine, architecture, film animation and computer games. Our market research shows that the leading companies in these areas demand the deep technical knowledge that this programme provides. Entry Requirements A minimum of an upper second-class UK Bachelor s degree in a relevant discipline, or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard in Computer Science, Mathematics, Electrical Engineering or the Physical Sciences is usually required. Candidates are expected to have suitable mathematics and computer programming skills. Relevant work experience may also be taken into account. How to apply Students are advised to apply as early as possible due to competition for places. Those applying for scholarship funding (particularly overseas applicants) should take note of application deadlines. Who can apply? This MSc is suitable for students wishing to develop the skills necessary for a career in computer graphics and special effects, medical imaging, ro
