Overview

Post-Baccalaureate Diploma in Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a burgeoning field undergoing rapid progress and development. 

Technological advances that rely on AI are numerous and include applications such as self-driving automobiles, medical diagnosis, computer-assisted translation tools, speech recognition, biometrics, entertainment, and a wide variety of classification and predictive technologies. 

AI is recognized as having immense social, technological, and ethical implications for society. 

The diploma will allow graduates to either begin or broaden their career in computing-related fields and provide them with a depth of knowledge in the highly sought-after field of AI. 

The Post-Baccalaureate Diploma in Artificial Intelligence is a two-year diploma program for students who already possess an undergraduate degree. 

The diploma is geared towards students whose undergraduate degree is not in Computer Science. 

The program is concentrated and rigorous, with at least half of the courses at the upper-year levels. 

Students will be introduced to a new discipline, build the basic knowledge quickly (within the first term), and then move to rigorous higher-level courses. 

Learning will be enriched by prior education and by the diverse backgrounds of their peers. 

As graduates of this program, they will bring this rich educational foundation to the workplace.

Post-Baccalaureate diplomas are attractive to students who want to do one or more of the following:

  • Expand their knowledge into a discipline outside of their first degree.
  • Change the direction of their first degree into new areas for career reasons.
