These additions reflect BUiD’s commitment to advancing knowledge, responding to industry needs, and preparing future leaders in high-demand sectors.

BUiD has introduced its enhanced Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence, building on the foundation of its former MSc in Informatics. This updated programme reflects a strategic alignment with global and national priorities in AI, offering students interdisciplinary and hands-on learning in areas such as machine learning, data science, intelligent systems, and natural language processing.

BUiD has also launched a Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering Management designed for professionals and researchers aiming to advance their leadership and research capabilities in complex engineering environments. In line with international academic standards, the structure of the new programme is based on the British model of PhD, where students are mainly trained in the first year on research skills before they begin work on their thesis from the second year onwards.

These specialisations provide educators and administrators with the opportunity to deepen their expertise in contemporary and high-demand areas. The new concentrations are:

1. Educational Management, Leadership and Policy

2. Diversity and Inclusive Education
