general university or college 'intro to AI' courses

  • 1.  general university or college 'intro to AI' courses

    Posted Sep 20, 2023 03:58 PM
    Hello everyone,

    My institution is beginning to explore the possibility of developing and offering a course or suite of courses that would introduce students to AI and build AI literacy.   This would be open to students in all disciplines and coding or programming skills would not be a pre-requisite.  We are most interested in for-credit courses at this point.  The course could be online, in-person or hybrid.

    We are aware of the following courses or suite of courses:


    Do you know of any other similar offerings from colleges or universities?  If so, I'd so appreciate you sharing links, syllabi, and any other relevant program details directly with me.  I'd be happy to then summarize for the list.  If your institution offers non-credit programming that is open to all majors in this area, I'd be open to receiving information about these but right now, my ask is focused on for-credit courses.

    With thanks,

    Helen
