Philadelphia Institute of Science and Technology

Artificial Intelligence

PHILLY-TECH’S Artificial intelligence (AI) program provides students the ability of a computer and a robot controlled by a computer system to do tasks that are usually done by humans because they require human intelligence and discernment. At PHILLY-TECH, students will learn the branch of computer languages and programs that emphasize the development of intelligent machines that think and work like humans.

The program will continuously adapt to evolving AI technologies and practices. Students will have the opportunity to engage in cutting-edge AI research and projects, preparing them for careers in AI development, data science, machine learning, and AI applications in various industries.
