Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence for Business at the Georgian National University SEU
The George Washington University's Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence for Business (MSAIB) at the Georgian National University SEU is intended to help Georgia meet its technical development objectives by training a pipeline of skilled applied artificial intelligence experts.
The program is designed to help SEU meet its education development objectives by training a pipeline of skilled education leaders to serve within government agencies, schools, university administrations and a growing private sector and to lead these organizations in advancing education development and the state strategic plan.
What Is a Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence for Business?
GW's MS in Artificial Intelligence for Business (MSAIB) is a STEM-designated program designed for students who want to do more than work alongside AI. It is perfect for individuals who want to build, deploy and govern AI-enabled systems that create organizational value. The MSAIB delivers an integrated skill set that bridges technical foundations, business strategy and responsible AI governance.
MSAIB pairs hands-on technical training — coding, statistics, generative AI — with the strategic, ethical and operational skills needed to apply AI inside organizations. Through ten courses, students progress from AI fundamentals to developing a capstone-level enterprise AI system.
