Artificial Intelligence and Human Responsibility
Define your future in a tech-driven world.
Artificial Intelligence is transforming the world. At SDSU, we invite you to be at the forefront — not just as a coder or a data scientist, but as a critical thinker, a global citizen, and an ethical innovator. This pioneering degree blends technical expertise, ethical insight, and human-centered analysis to prepare you for careers in technology, policy, research, and public engagement.
The Bachelor of Science degree in Artificial Intelligence and Human Responsibility equips you with the knowledge and skills to understand and evaluate artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in an ethical and sustainable manner.
By integrating technical literacy with insights from the social sciences and humanities, this degree will prepare you to navigate the complex landscape of AI use, creating graduates who can think expansively about not only how such technologies work but also when, whether, and why they should be employed, and how to realize their significant benefits while mitigating their dangerous potential for harm.
