As AI models continue to play a larger role in many careers, it's crucial that university graduates know how to use these tools effectively. This year, UMFK is launching a new course for Computer Systems Administration students, Introduction to Artificial Intelligence. This class will introduce first year students to different types of AI systems, before delving into the concepts that power AI models, and best practices to use AI tools effectively and ethically. UMFK has always placed a priority on preparing students to use emerging technology, and new offerings around AI will ensure we continue to adapt to changing industry standards.
