Artificial Intelligence Graduate Certificate

From topics in machine learning and natural language processing to expert systems and robotics, start here to define your career as an artificial intelligence engineer. The highly advanced curriculum for the Artificial Intelligence graduate certificate is designed to deeply explore AI areas, including computer robotics, natural language processing, image processing, and more.

Admission Requirements

• You must meet the general admission requirements that pertain to all graduate certificate candidates.
• Your prior education must include the following courses: (1) three semesters/terms of calculus, which includes multivariate calculus, (2) one semester/term of linear algebra, (3) one semester/term of probability and statistics, (4) one two semesters/terms of Python such as EN.605.101 Introduction to Python or EN.605.206 Introduction to Programming using Python or equivalent (including non-credit coursework such as Coursera or edX, etc.), AND EN.605.256 – Modern Software Concepts in Python or equivalent, and (5) one semester/term of advanced programming such as Data Structures.
• If your prior education does not include the courses listed above, you may still be admitted under provisional status, followed by full admission once you have completed the missing courses. Missing courses may be completed with Johns Hopkins Engineering (all prerequisites are available) or at another regionally accredited institution.
• If you decide to pursue the full master’s degree, all courses will apply to the master’s degree provided they meet program requirements and fall within a five-year time limit. You must declare your intention prior to completing the certificate.
• If you are an international student, you may have additional admission requirements.
• Official transcripts from all college studies must be submitted.

Certificate Requirements

• All coursework must be completed within five years.

• The curriculum consists of two core courses and two required courses. 

• One or more courses can be waived by your advisor if you have received a grade of a B− or above in equivalent graduate courses. In this case, you may replace the waived required course(s) with the same number of other graduate Artificial Intelligence courses.
• Only one C-range grade (C+, C, or C−) can count toward the graduate certificate.
• All course selections outside the four courses are subject to advisor approval.
