Master of Applied Science in Artificial Intelligence

The University of Guelph's Collaborative Specialization in Artificial Intelligence (CSAI) provides thesis-based master's students with a diverse and comprehensive knowledge base in artificial intelligence (AI). Students learn from a multidisciplinary team of faculty with expertise in fundamental and applied deep learning and machine learning, while conducting AI-related research guided by a faculty supervisor. Through a combination of online learning, lectures, team-based problem-solving and experiential learning opportunities, students obtain broad expertise in machine learning and AI, including essential skills in programming and algorithmic thinking, mathematical foundations and statistical analysis for AI, optimization, and data visualization. Students also develop an intimate understanding about the policy, regulatory and ethical issues related to AI and its uses.
