人工智能学士学位后文凭是为期两年的文凭课程，面向已拥有本科学历的学生。该文凭是针对那些本科学位不是计算机科学的学生的。该计划集中且严格，至少有一半的课程是在较高年级。将向学生介绍对他们来说是新的学科，快速（在第一学期之内）建立基础知识，然后再进入严格的高级课程。先前的教育和同龄人的不同背景将丰富学习。作为该计划的毕业生，他们将把这种丰富的教育基础带到工作场所。
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a burgeoning field undergoing rapid progress and development. Technological advances that rely on AI are numerous and include applications such as self-driving automobiles, medical diagnosis, computer-assisted translation tools, speech recognition, biometrics, entertainment, and a wide variety of classification and predictive technologies. AI is recognized as having immense social, technological, and ethical implications for society. This diploma will allow graduates to either begin or broaden their careers in computing-related fields and provide them with a depth of knowledge in the highly sought-after field of AI. AI is an area that is in high demand, and graduates of this program will be prepared for entry into the workplace or into graduate programs.<br><br>The Computer Science faculty at StFX are very active in research. Together, they provide an education in Computer Science that produces high-achievers who are well-suited for graduate studies or to develop a career in the industry. StFX’s Computer Science program is the top-ranked in Atlantic Canada in Maclean’s for the third year in a row. Computer Science research at StFX was tied for first place in Canada in field-specific research impact (Field-weighted citation impact, Maclean’s 2019). Students in the Artificial Intelligence Post-Baccalaureate Diploma will also join a vibrant department surrounded by like-minded undergraduate and graduate students.
