Our president four years ago said we needed to have AI in all of our programs... so we introduced AI into our data analytics course, and then we have an AI concentration... we also have a certificate in AI in business that students can take and get up to nine hours of credit... we actually have courses being developed in AI in marketing — it's already been developed and is an elective course for our students. We have AI in supply chain being developed as well. Short-term and long-term, that content will mostly be embedded in our other existing courses. And as best we can tell, we had the first AI concentration and master's degree.
