What it isArtificial Intelligence is the study of how to design computer systems that can learn, make decisions, and solve problems with minimal human instruction. This program embeds four paid work terms throughout your degree, alternating with school terms, so you gain industry experience while learning theory. It suits students who want hands-on experience alongside rigorous training in machine learning, data analysis, and intelligent systems, and who are ready to balance classroom study with workplace responsibilities.You study the theory and practice of building software, designing systems, and solving problems with computers. Carleton's program lets you focus on specializations like artificial intelligence, games, or software engineering, and includes a co-op stream where you alternate between classroom and paid work terms. This suits students who want hands-on industry experience alongside their degree and are interested in both the technical and applied sides of computing.You study the theory and practice of computer programming, software design, and how to build applications and systems. The co-op option lets you alternate between school terms and paid work terms at companies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your degree. This program suits people who want to combine hands-on coding skills with an understanding of how software works in actual business and technology settings.
