22 courses with the subject ASE, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
ASE 110Introduction to Programming for Artificial Intelligence3
Introduction of Python programming for management of textual, tabular, and image data, used in conjunction with JSON, NumPy, Pandas, and LangChain for data management, cleaning, wrangling, aggregation, and interfacing. Credit cannot be given for both IAI 110/ASE110 and CIS 151.
Introductory concepts in set theory, probability theory, linear algebra, and the fundamentals of how they are applied to artificial intelligence. IAI302/ASE302 cannot be taken for credit after receiving a grade of C or higher in MAT331, MAT485, or CIS375.
