Master of Science in Computer Science- Artificial Intelligence

The concentration in artificial intelligence provides students with an in-depth understanding of the principles and technologies used to embody machines with human-like intelligent capabilities. Students taking this concentration will have an opportunity to learn, as well as perform hands-on experiments in different areas of artificial intelligence such as software agents, multi-agent and multi-robot systems, machine vision and image processing technologies, neural network based adaptive software systems, heuristics and stochastic optimization techniques for critical decision making, machine learning and knowledge engineering techniques for embedding intelligence in computers and information systems.Students completing this program will be able to:Demonstrate the ability to create basic computational artifacts. Demonstrate knowledge of computing systems and their integration.Explain how computing permeates today's society, including security, privacy, and ethical considerations.Apply appropriate pedagogical content knowledge in the teaching of computing topics.Describe relevant and recent research findings in computer science education including how they might be applied in the classroom.
