Europe, universities and industry launch Emotion AI masters - Karen MacGregor, University World News

A masters in Emotion AI – an emerging subset of artificial intelligence that interprets and responds to human emotions – kicks off next year across eight universities in six European countries. The masters is blended and transdisciplinary, at the cutting edge of applied AI and will spin off modules for mass AI upskilling. It is also interesting as an example of Europe’s expanded number of postgraduate degrees produced in partnerships between universities and the private sector, in this case under EIT Digital, the digital arm of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), which is an independent body of the European Union.
