Start an in-demand career and help drive the artificial intelligence boom
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are changing the world. The technologies are everywhere and are pushing what’s possible in fields like health care, finance, and more. Start an innovative career where you’ll use these technologies to identify patterns, automate processes, and support decision-making in public and private sectors. Equipped with mathematical and computational foundations, you’ll delve into deep and modern machine learning technologies and gain hands-on experience in the training, validation, and testing phases of AI and ML systems. From data collection to preprocessing, modeling, and final production, you will learn to manage and effectively communicate each stage of an AI project.
