Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the study of intelligent artifacts and the principles behind their design, construction, and analysis. Oregon State has a long history of excellence in AI since the early days of computer science. The field traces its origin to many disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, mathematics, and engineering.
Today, AI is making contributions to all areas of science, engineering and humanities. To encompass this diversity, the AI program offers a direct pathway for well-motivated and computationally oriented students from any discipline to enter the field of AI and start making contributions.
