         GRADUATE CERTIFICATE IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
                        Intensive Program
              Summer Session - May 30-August, 1988



This Graduate Certificate in  Artificial  Intelligence  offers  a
strong  foundation  in  the theory, techniques and methods of AI.
Graduates will have a grounding in knowledge engineering, AI pro-
gramming   methods   and  languages,  knowledge  acquisition  and
representation, and application development  tools  and  methods.
Ideal  for engineers, scientists and MIS professionals, this pro-
gram will give the students an intensive preparation in the  fun-
damentals  of artificial intelligence and expert systems with em-
phasis on the practices required to design and construct applica-
tions.   The  program  has over 100 graduates and is currently in
its fourth offering.  Graduates will earn credit applicable to  a
graduate  degree  and will be awarded a graduate certificate upon
satisfactory completion.  the program emphasises laboratory work.
A significant part of the program is the students' projects. Each
student should enter the program with a proposed AI project.  The
individual  student  performs knowledge acquisition, luation, en-
coding and analysis. The staff will select projects to be  imple-
mented  as  prototypes  by teams of three or four students. Final
project reports are presented in seminar and written form.
