What You’ll Learn

With the Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning (BSAIML) program, you will graduate with a strong foundation in the concepts and theory of this discipline as well as the know-how to create and support large-scale deployments and practical applications. Simply put, you will learn how to build and use AI tools.

Program Features

• Covers core computer science skills of computational thinking and problem-solving, programming, and software development.
• Equips students with AIML-specific knowledge and skills—in areas such as machine learning algorithms, data science, natural language processing, computer vision, neural networks, and ethics—highly sought after by a broad range of industries.
• Encourages students to develop their creativity and originality as well as an appreciation of working for the common good.
• Prepares students for careers in rapidly changing professions and cultivates the crucial skills they need to continue learning and remaining relevant throughout their careers.
• Provides students a solid grounding in AI and machine learning as one of the first AI programs (and only to include machine learning) offered by US colleges, according to .

How You Can Customize Your Degree

Shape the program to your goals by tailoring your study of AI and machine learning to specific focus areas (e.g., theory, data analytics, hardware, and/or practical applications). You can further customize the degree by adding a minor from the many choices in the College of Engineering and Computing and/or the hundreds of minors across the university.

How You Can Gain Real-World Experience Before Graduating

Real-world experiences, such as co-ops, our annual hackathon, and a full-year team capstone project, will allow you to build solutions for business and society problems and develop professional relationships.

Cooperative Education

Drexel Co-op allows students to test drive careers, network and gain experience before graduation. Students choose from more than 1,700 employers in 35 states and 45 international locations or conduct an independent search. Visit the Steinbright Career Development Center website to learn more.

Senior Project

Every student participates in a final, collaborative project that challenges them to tackle a relevant problem proposed by one of our many corporate sponsors. It is a year-long process with students working alongside industry mentors. Read more about Senior Project.

Codefest — SCIS’s Hackathon

Every spring, SCIS hosts Philadelphia’s largest hackathon complete with corporate-sponsored challenges that have often been translated into real, marketable solutions. Read more.

Where the Degree Can Take You

Graduates of the BSAIML program are in high demand in a vast array of industries where knowledge of AI and machine learning is critical for success. 

With the BS in Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, you can hold positions such as:

• software developer/engineer
• programmer
• data scientist
• systems analyst or consultant
• manager of technical staff

Two of the top 10 STEM jobs predicted to experience the most growth through 2032—AI and Machine Learning Specialist and Software Developer—are in the artificial intelligence field, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.
