The graduate Certificate in Artificial Intelligence, Modeling and Simulation (AIMS) requires a minimum of 15 s.h. of graduate coursework. To earn the certificate, the student is required to attain a minimum grade-point average of 3.00 in coursework specifically for the certificate.
Students are strongly encouraged to participate in at least one workshop related to Python, R, or high performance and parallel computing offered by the Information Technology Services Research Services (ITS-RS) department, and HACKUIOWA organized by the University of Iowa's Hydroinformatics Lab.
The Certificate in Artificial Intelligence, Modeling and Simulation in Engineering requires the following coursework.
Required Courses
Students must complete at least two of the following courses but may choose to complete all three courses as part of the certificate.
Course # | Title | Hours |
---|---|---|
At least two of these: | ||
ME:5170 | Data-Driven Analysis in Engineering Mechanics | 3 |
ME:5300 | Uncertainty Quantification and Design Optimization | 3 |
