The most highly discussed and debated subject in contemporary computer culture, and the rare technological advancement about which we might correctly anticipate with no exaggeration “this is going to change the world.” Artificial Intelligence represents revolutionary computer science at its most challenging and potentially beneficial, investing the power of analysis and deductive reasoning into increasingly sophisticated machine minds.
The degree program merges multiple disciplines with computer science, incorporating mathematics, statistics, and cognitive psychology to provide a comprehensive understanding of AI. This allows students to gain an integrated understanding of AI systems, their development, and their implications.
