Certificate in Artificial Intelligence Engineering – AECERAIEN

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) have exploded in importance in recent years and garnered attention in a wide variety of application areas, including computer vision (e.g., image recognition), game playing (e.g., AlphaGo), autonomous driving, speech recognition, customer preference elicitation, bioinformatics (e.g. gene analysis) and others.

While the topics may appear primarily to reside in the disciplines of computer engineering and computer science, the topics of AI and ML now apply to all disciplines of engineering, such as the projection of future road-traffic patterns, applications in industrial automation and robotic control, or the use of AI/ML drug discovery, to name just a few examples.

All U of T Engineering undergraduates (except students in the Engineering Science Machine Intelligence and Robotics majors) are eligible to participate in this certificate.
