Programs in systems science and engineering offer numerous opportunities to study complex systems in nature, society and science itself, aiming to develop interdisciplinary foundations that are applicable in a variety of areas, such as engineering, business and the social sciences. These programs provide students with the skills and knowledge required to understand, control, predict and optimize behaviour in a variety of fields, from engineering and computer science to management and applied economics.

The concentration in interdisciplinary artificial intelligence allows students to be at the forefront of a technological advancement that is shaping humanity’s future. By focusing their studies on artificial intelligence and its impact on domains such as engineering, computer science, management, neuroscience and psychology, students will graduate with diverse perspectives and expertise to harness the potential of AI.

The graduate programs in systems science and engineering are interdisciplinary programs drawing on contributions from the School of Engineering Design and Teaching Innovation, the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, the Department of Economics, and the Telfer School of Management.

The broad scope of these programs gives their graduates a wide range of career options, not only in technical fields but also in management and science.
