Delve Deeper into Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence, AI, is an area of study that explores how to create computer programs that learn to make decisions, reason about data, and communicate with humans. In the MS in AI degree program, students learn to apply creative thinking, algorithmic design, and coding skills to build modern AI systems. Students will gain deep technical training and expertise in our focus areas of machine learning, computer vision, and natural language processing.

The program prepares students to work as Artificial Intelligence Engineers in information technology companies or pursue a PhD degree in computer science.

The 8-course MS in AI program is geared toward students with a computer science undergraduate degree, but we also welcome those with equivalent training and experience, as well as students with gaps in their computing background but strong academic records overall.

While not required, MS in AI candidates may complete a master’s project or thesis. Projects are carried out with the approval of, and under the supervision of, a faculty member. A master’s project can be expanded into a master’s thesis, which requires two faculty readers.
