The Graduate Major in Artificial Intelligence aims to cultivate individuals who have the ability to look at the field of computing from a higher perspective and see the direction of new developments. We want students to strive to find appropriate solutions to complicated real-world problems by applying multiple disciplines, then build advanced artificial intelligence systems and services which will contribute to the development of society.

In the Master's Program, we aim to foster individuals who possess a wide range of basic expertise related to artificial intelligence, such as basic mathematical science, computation theory, and modeling, and can apply these specialized abilities to solve difficult problems by collaborating with members of differing backgrounds and different areas of expertise.

In the Graduate Major in Artificial Intelligence, courses comprise four fields:
Basic Mathematical Sciences, Computation Theory, Modeling, and Artificial Intelligence. Students gain a balanced mastery of these fields over two years, broadening their academic perspectives in artificial intelligence and deepening their knowledge in their specialized fields. Through Research Seminars and Special Exercise courses, students also learn how to think logically and hold discussions, being provided with the skills necessary to conduct their research.
