Program Description
This program satisfies the requirements of the general Masters of Applied Science Electrical and Computer Engineering Program, but provides a concentration in Applied Artificial Intelligence by taking a minimum of 12 units of courses in the area. As electrical and computer engineers develop new generation systems, devices, applications and networks, it is critical to understand how to effectively, safely and responsibly leverage artificial intelligence theory and methodologies so to integrate them with system design and development. Core courses focus on Applied Machine Learning and Ethics for Design, AI, and Robotics. Furthermore, the students are able to specialize in option courses on deep learning, reinforcement learning, uncertainty, intelligence-enabled communications, autonomous, networked and multi-agent systems, adaptive signal processing, robotics, vision. and smart cities. Graduates of this concentration are equipped with the knowledge and skills to combine theory, research and practice in artificial intelligence to enable filling a wide range of career vacancies in industry, government and academia.
