Is an Artificial Intelligence Master's Degree Right for Me?


How do you teach something that changes every six months? At Heinz College, we stress "learning to learn": providing you with the background, systems thinking and first principles you'll need to adapt and advance along with AI. 

You want to beccome a leading AI specialist and work with elite firms to contribute to cutting-edge AI projects. But you need stronger programming and statistics skills and exposure to advanced AI topics.

Our curriculum bridges that gap.

Using principles such as systems thinking, design thinking and computational thinking, you will become proficient in technical decision making to ensure your organization or client uses the right AI system for their needs, thanks to analytics classes such as Fundamentals of Operationalizing AI.

Finally, you'll learn what you need to convert model to outcome: Business writing, operationalizing AI throughout the lifecycle to ensure safety and reduce risk, and product management. You'll emerge from the program with the understanding of how models function at a granular level, the business acumen to identify how they can solve the problems of our time, and the leadership ability to implement them from start to finish.
