EM 534
Artificial Intelligence for Engineering Managers
Section: 001

Course Description

This course is designed for engineering managers to develop the skills necessary to manage AI and machine learning projects. It covers a broad range of AI topics including the various methods and algorithms (such as machine learning, deep learning, and large language models) and associated applications in different industries. The focus is on understanding the technical aspects of AI sufficient to manage teams, make informed decisions on AI adoption, and create project plans that estimate resources, costs, and timelines. The course aims to equip managers with the knowledge to assess the impact of AI on their firms and the broader economy. It is not a technical course for becoming an AI/ML engineer, but rather a management-oriented course to help in the deployment and oversight of AI projects.
