Computer Science: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

Data-Driven Learning. Real-World Applications.

Investigate the best concepts and techniques central to artificial intelligence, including representation, heuristic search, machine learning, genetic algorithms, planning, and games.

Top Reasons

Highest Paying Major

With a median base salary of $70,000, the Washington Post ranks computer scientists as the best earners out of college.

Outstanding Job Placement

Our students land jobs as software engineers, cybersecurity consultants, and web developers with a wide range of organizations including Lockheed Martin, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and Federal Express.

Modern Computing Labs

The newly inaugurated, state-of-the-art Carole and Marcus Weinstein Computer Sciences Center houses an AI/Robotics research lab, a Cyber Range, as well as a makerspace with 3d printers and laser/etching printers.

State of the Art Facilities

The Department of Computer Science moved into the new, state-of-the-art Carole and Marcus Weinstein Computer Sciences Center in August 2021. In addition to dedicated, high-tech classrooms, this new facility houses a cyber range, AI/Robotics research lab, makerspace, and eSports gaming room

Current Methodologies

Examine the fundamental models and methods used in artificial intelligence and machine learning, such as regression, neural networks, learning theory, support vector machines, and recommender systems.

In the same way that machine learning enables computers to learn from experience, my goal as a teacher is to enable students to learn from experience, connecting the concepts we discuss in class to real-world applications and developing critical thinking and problem solving skills that will benefit them in their future careers.
