About

Whether you’re drawn to the logic behind machine reasoning or interested in the foundations of formal methods, our master’s program Logic and Artificial Intelligence offers a powerful combination of theoretical grounding and practical, hands-on experience. It bridges logic-based foundations with data-driven techniques in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and neural networks, and prepares you to build safe, reliable, and ethically sound technologies in an increasingly complex digital world. This master’s program combines technical depth with societal responsibility, and provides you with the knowledge and skills to launch a successful career in both academia and the private sector.

What to expect?

We build from the basics: You’ll learn all important fundamentals of logic, theory, algorithms, and artificial intelligence, setting a solid base before moving into specialized fields. With the core modules under your belt, you’ll be able to shape your academic path through a broad selection of electives—allowing you to deepen your expertise and focus on the areas that drive your curiosity. You’ll be part of a dynamic, international research community—collaborating closely with faculty, researchers, and fellow students.

Why all this?

The world needs professionals who can think critically about advanced AI systems, and design intelligent systems that are safe, transparent, and ethically responsible. This program gives you a solid foundation in logic-based techniques and opens doors to specialized knowledge in fields such as semantic web technologies, formal systems engineering, logistics, operations research, cybersecurity, and many more. You won’t just learn how to build AI—you’ll learn how to think critically about the implications of AI-systems and how to develop them responsibly. With a master’s degree in Logic and Artificial Intelligence, you have a bright career ahead of you—not only in terms of salaries but also in shaping the future of AI in our society.

Curriculum

Curriculum Overview. Full details about structure and content of the program are available in the [curriculum](/master/curriculum-ue066931.pdf) (PDF) and in the list of [courses](https://tiss.tuwien.ac.at/curriculum/public/curriculum.xhtml?key=55301&locale=en) in TISS.
Curriculum Overview. Full details about structure and content of the program are available in the curriculum (PDF) and in the list of courses in TISS.

The first and second semesters are dedicated to getting around the foundations of Logic and Artificial Intelligence. Modules in Logic and Theory, Algorithms and Complexity, Symbolic (Logic-Based) AI, and Machine Learning are complemented by your choice between Artificial Intelligence and Society or Safe and Trustworthy Systems.

Over the course of the third semester, you’ll be able to specialize in your areas of interest with electives that build directly upon the foundational modules.

The focus in the fourth semester lies on developing and writing up your master’s thesis.

Throughout your studies, a well-balanced set of open electives and extension courses deepen your knowledge of core competencies in Logic and Artificial Intelligence and allow you to explore interdisciplinary areas, apply AI and logic concepts in broader contexts, and develop valuable secondary skills.
