Specialization introduction

Major introduction

Using algorithms to enable machines to see the world, hear sounds, and make decisions is one of the core technologies of AI.

Program overview

Pattern Recognition and Intelligent Systems, simply put, teaches machines to 'see' and 'think' like humans. You'll learn how to make computers recognize objects in images, understand voice commands, analyze data patterns, and then make intelligent decisions. Core courses include Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, and Intelligent Control. This program is ideal for students with a solid foundation in math and programming and a passion for AI. China is highly active in pattern recognition research and applications—labs at the Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Tsinghua University, and Peking University are internationally renowned, and many students get to work on real projects like facial recognition and autonomous driving perception systems.

Major prospects

现在AI行业正在从实验室走向大规模落地。中国有全球最大的互联网用户群和制造业基础，对智能系统的需求非常旺盛。比如安防领域的人脸识别、医疗领域的影像诊断、工业领域的缺陷检测、金融领域的风控模型，都离不开模式识别技术。国际学生如果在中国学习这个专业，可以接触到丰富的应用场景和实习机会。而且中国很多城市（北京、上海、深圳、杭州）都有AI产业集群，创业氛围浓，政策也鼓励技术创新。

Career prospects

毕业后出路很广。最常见的去向是互联网和科技公司，比如百度、阿里、腾讯、华为、字节跳动、商汤科技等，做算法工程师或机器学习工程师。也可以去研究院（如微软亚洲研究院、阿里达摩院）做研究，或者去自动驾驶、机器人、医疗影像等垂直领域的创业公司。薪资方面，一线城市应届硕士年薪通常在20-40万人民币，有经验的算法工程师年薪可达50万以上。国际学生如果中文流利，还可以考虑外企在华研发中心，或者回国发展。
