Artificial intelligence (AI) is extending human capabilities and expanding what's possible. Recent breakthroughs demonstrate AI's potential to address humanity's most pressing challenges while transforming how people discover, create, and solve problems.
The B.S. in Artificial Intelligence Methods and Applications (AIMA) prepares students to lead this revolution, not only by building intelligent systems, but also by applying AI responsibly to some of society's most complex and important challenges. Through an innovative curriculum, hands-on projects that mirror real-world complexity, and an emphasis on ethics and impact, students will gain the technical skills to design and deploy robust AI solutions and the insight to ask: What should we build and why? How do we accommodate real-world constraints? And how do the technologies we develop impact humanity?
What Students Will Learn
The program equips students with a strong foundation and cutting-edge skills needed to design and implement AI-driven solutions. Students will explore key topics such as:
- Artificial Intelligence – The Very Idea
- Knowledge Representation and Inference
- Automated Problem Solving
- Machine Learning
- Responsible Artificial Intelligence
- Human-Centered AI
- Generative AI Methods and Applications
Supporting Courses
To deepen expertise, students will also take a series of supporting technical courses in fields like computer science, data science, electrical engineering, or mathematics. Students will then apply their knowledge within a specific application domain, such as:
- Agricultural Sciences
- Business Fundamentals
- Enterprise Technology Integration
- National Security
- Philosophy
- Psychology
Graduates of the AIMA program will be uniquely prepared to shape the future of AI, combining technical excellence with ethical awareness and real-world application.
