AI for Health
Discover the flexible pathways to a Micro Degree at Leibniz AI Academy, designed to fit your unique learning journey. From beginner to advanced models, our structured approach offers a blend of basic, specialization, and application lectures, allowing you to customize your AI education to match your career goals.
You can obtain a Micro Degree at different levels (of ECTS equivalents):
- Beginner (10 ECTS): Perfect for beginners, combining fundamental lectures to kickstart your AI journey.
- Basic (15 ECTS): Builds on foundational knowledge with added specialization for a deeper understanding.
- Standard (20 ECTS): Offers a balanced mix of basic, specialization, and application lectures to broaden your expertise.
- Advanced (25 ECTS): Designed for those seeking comprehensive knowledge with extensive specialization.
Each program offers a Micro Degree of varying difficulty levels and is designed for a different target group depending on their qualification. These modules can additionally be taken as part of degree programmes and others as additional qualifications. Moreover, you can upgrade your Micro Degree; For instance, if you have already obtained the "Beginner" Micro Degree, you can take additional courses to achieve the "Basic" level.
How does it work?
You can obtain ECTS (credentials) for your Micro Degree by completing lectures which are assigned to three different categories:
- Basic Lectures: Fundamental concepts in fields related to AI
- Specialization Lectures: Specific Niches in AI
- Application Lectures: Domain-Specific Applications of AI
You can combine these lectures to form a path, at the end of which you get a Micro Degree! There are different paths depending on your particular background and exposure to AI.
Students with few or no prior knowledge in AI
For people who have either very minimal experience with AI, or no prior knowledge, we provide three learning paths to a Micro Degree.
Beginner Path
You first take a basic lectures that can either be Data Science Foundations or Machine Learning, and then choose any application lectures of their choice
Basic Path
You can combine a basic lecture with another basic lecture, a specialization lecture, or another application lecture along with a final application lecture.
Standard Path
You can either combine two basic lecture with a specialization and application lecture, or combine one basic and specialization with two applications
Students of Computer Science B.Sc. and M.Sc., and students with good prior knowledge
For students who have previously studied AI related subjects as part of their B.Sc and M.Sc program, we provide a more exhaustive set of paths to a Micro Degree paths called: Basic, Standard and Advanced
Basic Path
Combine a basic lecture with a speicalization and an application, or combine two specializations with an application.
Standard Path
Combine a basic lecture with with either two specializations and one application, or two applications and one specialization.
Advanced Path
Two basics and specialization, or one basic and three specializations, with an applcation, or a basic with two specialzations and applcations.
Current Micro Degree Programmes
There are a number of compulsory courses and electives for each Micro Degree. Additionally, we recommend some electives for each Micro Degree for a holistic learning experience. You can find a summary of this data in the attached PDF file
