Problem
Universities and colleges lack objective, data‑driven insight into how well their curricula align with the growing demand for AI‑related skills, making it difficult to identify which programmes prepare graduates for an AI‑focused job market and where curriculum gaps exist.
Solution
Coursemap analyses every course offered by an institution against graduate destination data from HESA and measures the AI exposure of those employment outcomes. Each course receives a quantitative score that reflects its relevance to AI‑intensive roles, accompanied by a detailed rationale. The platform also highlights resilient, high‑demand areas where the institution has limited or no provision and recommends new or revised courses to address those gaps. Institutions can access a full, course‑by‑course report at no cost for UK universities and colleges, while international partners receive customized analyses. The service continuously updates scores as new graduate outcome data become available, ensuring ongoing relevance.
Target Audience
Primary customers are UK universities and colleges seeking to evaluate and improve the AI relevance of their curricula, as well as international higher‑education institutions that require customized gap analyses.
