Artificial Intelligence
Power Innovation, Drive Change, and Lead in One of the Fastest-Growing Industries.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the way we live, work, and solve complex problems. From self-driving vehicles and intelligent virtual assistants to medical diagnostics and advanced robotics, AI is driving innovation across nearly every industry.
Studying Artificial Intelligence gives you the opportunity to explore how machines learn, reason, and make decisions. You'll combine knowledge from computer science, data science, mathematics, and cognitive systems to develop technologies that can analyze information, recognize patterns, and solve real-world challenges.
As organizations increasingly rely on AI-powered solutions, demand for professionals with AI expertise continues to grow. Whether you're interested in developing cutting-edge technology, advancing scientific research, improving healthcare outcomes, or creating smarter business solutions, an AI education can position you at the forefront of one of the world's fastest-growing fields.
Career Outlook
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the demand for computer and technology jobs is expected to increase by 12 percent from 2018-2028, which is faster than the average for all occupations. In May 2018, the median annual wage of computer and technology careers was $86,320, which is 123 percent higher than the median annual wage for all occupations. The average salary of a software developer in 2020 is $71,034, with the highest making $104K (PayScale).
In fact, 20% of C-level executives now use machine learning as a core part of their operations, and it’s estimated that the potential global language/AI economy could deliver $13 trillion by 2030 (mckinsey.com).
