Majors, Minors & Concentrations
Program Overview
The ÁùºÏ±¦¿â Artificial Intelligence (AI) major is an interdisciplinary program in the College of Arts and Sciences that comprises courses from Computer Science & Math, Arts & Humanities, and Business & Law. Given both the business demand for the advancement of automation and artificial intelligence in a number of industries and ÁùºÏ±¦¿â’s record of success in combining liberal arts education with professional preparation, we are well positioned to develop and sustain a program in AI.
