The programs will be offered at the university\u2019s Moscow and Coeur d\u2019Alene locations, and the graduate degrees will be available online, the university said in a news release.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe U of I helped build the applied engineering, computational and interdisciplinary foundations that became important as AI matured into a real-world industrial technology,\u201d U of I President C. Scott Green said in the release. \u201cOur students don\u2019t just learn how to use AI, they learn how to build AI tools and systems, teach computers to understand and generate language on state-of-the-art AI infrastructure and apply AI in the real world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The degrees will get students ready to \u201clead in one of the fastest-growing and most transformative fields in technology,\u201d the university said on its website describing the bachelor\u2019s degree. The university also will offer a number of different emphases, including cyber, human-centered AI and robotics.<\/p>\n<p>Artificial intelligence has grown significantly in recent years, and agencies across the state have&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.idahostatesman.com\/news\/local\/education\/article316269897.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U of Idaho students can now major in artificial intelligence https:\/\/www.idahostatesman.com\/news\/local\/education\/article316269897.html Publish Date: 2026-06-25 16:59:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":281887,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.idahostatesman.com\/public\/news\/local\/education\/xcf77g\/picture276911883\/alternates\/LANDSCAPE_1200\/Ramirez-03.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-281885","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281885"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=281885"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281885\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":281888,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281885\/revisions\/281888"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/281887"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=281885"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=281885"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=281885"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
