Online Undergraduate Certificate: Artificial Intelligence Foundations

Master Key Concepts & Applications of Artificial Intelligence

Today’s employers understand that the field of AI is expanding at a rapid rate, which is why modern companies understand the need to engage with—and adapt to—this new technology. The foundational skills, techniques, and AI fundamentals you learn in this online certificate program are universal and will only increase in relevance as AI technology continues to integrate itself into modern workflows and processes. Our portfolio directors refresh and update the curriculum regularly, with a focus on helping students achieve the following:

Practice Real-World Skills in Your AI Courses

Throughout your academic curriculum, your instructors will assign coursework that will help you prioritize real-world skills and experience. Some possible course projects include:

• Analyze a machine learning model used for loan approval to identify and mitigate potential biases. By examining the dataset, feature selection, and model predictions, you may uncover sources of bias and implement strategies to enhance fairness and equity in the model’s outcomes.
• Examine the transparency and explainability of a black-box AI system used for employee performance evaluation and develop a project to improve the system.
• Develop a machine learning-based Intrusion Detection System (IDS) to identify and mitigate potential cyber threats in a network environment.
• Examine the ethical implications of generative AI models, such as deepfakes and AI-generated content. The project involves a thorough analysis of the potential misuse of generative AI, the societal impact, and the development of guidelines for responsible use and regulation.
