AI Horizon: Certificate Program in Artificial Intelligence
An Interdisciplinary Academic Experience for Students Shaping the World of Tomorrow
Artificial intelligence technologies are bringing about profound transformations not only in the fields of engineering and computer science, but also in law, media, politics, ethics, healthcare, economics, and culture. This transformation is reshaping future career paths and intellectual foundations, adding new dimensions to the knowledge, awareness, and critical thinking skills that university students are expected to possess.
AI Horizon: Certificate Program in Artificial Intelligence offers an interdisciplinary academic structure developed to meet this need. The program aims to introduce undergraduate and graduate students from non-technical backgrounds to the social, cultural, economic, and legal dimensions of AI, empowering them with both theoretical and practical competence.
All courses in the program are conducted in English, supported by Turkish-language supplementary materials. The program provides participants with a strong analytical and conceptual foundation that enhances both their academic development and future career paths.
Who Can Participate?
The AI Horizon program is open to all undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at Altınbaş University. Students from all faculties and academic backgrounds—including law, business, communication, psychology, health sciences, engineering, social work, and related fields—are eligible to participate. Any student who seeks to understand the societal impacts of artificial intelligence, evaluate technology from a holistic perspective, and develop multidimensional thinking skills can directly benefit from this program.
