Concentration – Artificial Intelligence
The AI concentration is a discipline and specialization within the ECE department that follows the general ECE degree requirements, and it is open to all students in MSEE, MSCE, and MSECE. In addition to ECE department students, this concentration is also open to students in MS computer science, MS software engineering and MS Information and Cyber security. Non-ECE students (MSCS, MSSE, and MSICS) must take the REQUIRED ELECTIVES and two courses from ELECTIVES in AI concentration to fulfill the concentration requirements. The core courses for non-ECE majores will be according to their respective major requirements.
The AI concentration has the same requirements as the general ECE degree and a total of 39 credit hours.
ELECTIVE COURSES
Minimum of 2 electives are required in order to fulfill the AI concentration requirement:
- ECE 656 Reinforcement Learning (Pytorch)
- ECE 657 Natural Language Processing (Keras/TensorFlow 2.0, Pytorch)
- ECE 660 Parallel Implementation of ML Algorithms with GPUs (Python Mumba programming, Cuda programming with C++)
- ECE 661 AI application development in Engineering and Science (self-driving cars, advanced computer vision/face recognition, AI application in Cybersecurity)
- ECE 662 AI application development in business (Fintech/algorithmic trading)
- ECE 663 Machine Learning project deployment and production (dockers and Kubernetes, Edge AI, iPhone/Android deployment)
