A.A.S. Degree Program Plan

The Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Cloud Computing degree program prepares the graduate with a strong foundation in applied Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Cloud concepts, techniques and applications. Artificial Intelligence is perceiving, synthesizing, and inferring information demonstrated by machines as opposed to intelligence displayed by human beings. Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage (cloud storage) and computing power without direct management by the user. Upon successful completion of the program, students will be prepared for jobs in the AI and Cloud sectors.
