Admission Requirements

This certificate program is open to students with a bachelor's degree in any academic area and who are not majoring in Artificial Intelligence. Students must satisfy the prerequisites for each course in the program. The average GPA of all four courses counted in the program must be 3.0 or better. This certificate requires four courses that have not been counted in any other minor or certificate program within the College of Engineering and Computer Science.

Degree Requirements

The certificate has two tracks: a Development track and an Applications track. The Development track is intended for students proficient in programming who will develop new algorithms and mechanisms in artificial intelligence. The Applications track is open to students who have introductory programming skills and are interested in learning how to use the tools and algorithms of artificial intelligence. Students in both tracks are expected to have completed a statistics course.
