List of courses for breadth in AI

Petitioning for breadth in AI from other institutions

Students who have taken AI courses at other institutions may petition to have these courses count towards breadth in AI. A petition must include a course syllabus and list of textbooks used for the course. If the course is more or less equivalent to one of our courses, the petition is approved and the course can be counted in lieu of the equivalent course. If the course is not equivalent to any of our courses, but yet covers a reasonable range of topics in AI, the petition may be approved at the discretion of the AI area coordinator.
