Back in the 2000s - it was AI & CS (or SE) Joint Honours.

In 1st and 2nd year, you would do the same Maths and CS course as CS/SE; you didn't get an elective it was a separate AI course, which covered the basics.

In 3rd/4th year (honours years as they're called here) - IIRC you'd have to take 8 courses in 3rd (plus an individual project and a team project) and 6 in 4th and your dissertation. Depending on the degree specialisation; you had to take some mandatory courses (CS only had to do Compiling Techniques and Algorithms, AI/CS didn't have to do CT - but they had to do Algorithms and Computability and Intractability). So, the two departments were very closely aligned and then were brought together into a new department/school within the Science and Engineering faculty.

They also offer a single AI honours degree now, but the structure seems very similar to what I experienced, with perhaps a bit more freedom in 3rd and 4th year.

Interestingly, while the majority of students were AI/CS or AI/SE - they also had joint honour programmes outside the faculty - so there were a few students who were AI and Psychology as well as AI and Linguistics. I don't believe they offer this combination anymore.
