Artificial Intelligence

Xuan Wang, an assistant professor in George Mason University’s Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, is trying to ensure safety in human-computer autonomous systems.

Mason's Department of Mechanical Engineering is offering a new certificate in responsible AI.

The College of Engineering and Computing at George Mason University introduces four innovative graduate certificate programs in fall 2024, catering to burgeoning fields of mechanical engineering, computer science, systems engineering and operations research, and electrical and computer engineering. Professors leading each program provide insights into the curricula design, societal impact, and ideal candidates.

Mason has joined more than 200 of the nation’s leading artificial intelligence (AI) stakeholders to participate in a Department of Commerce initiative to support the development and deployment of trustworthy and safe AI.
