The Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence (MSAI) curriculum is designed to provide advanced coursework with practical applications across various AI fields while emphasizing ethical considerations in AI and preparing students to develop and apply AI in ways that promote human flourishing.
Students in this program will develop a foundational understanding of AI and its underlying theories and learn how to utilize advanced AI tools and relevant knowledge to tackle real-world challenges, gaining both theoretical insights and hands-on experience applicable in the workplace.
The program is intended for students whose undergraduate preparation is in computer science, artificial intelligence, or a closely related field. Prospective students with strong software coding skills and technical degrees, such as in engineering, mathematics, or the physical sciences, may be able to succeed in the MSAI program.
The MSAI program is designed as a 30-credit master’s degree with a balanced mix of theoretical knowledge and practical application. Understanding that many students are working professionals with additional commitments, the curriculum is designed to offer the flexibility needed to balance both personal and professional obligations.
Students can complete the program in 3 semesters by successfully finishing 3 to 4 courses each semester (full-time study), or in 5 semesters by successfully finishing 2 courses each semester (part-time study).
