Artificial Intellegence
The B.S.E. in AI degree provides the mathematical and algorithmic foundations of AI techniques, along with hands-on experience in programming as well as using AI tools and foundation models.
Complementing these engineering skills with a broader perspective, students learn about intelligence from a cognitive science perspective, and they develop a sense of the issues (and solutions) required to responsibly develop AI to benefit society.
Finally, students choose a concentration, ranging from machine learning, to vision and language, to data and society, to robotics, to AI and health systems. Interested students can learn more about the courses by visiting the link below.
