The future is today. Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer an idea discussed by forward-thinking digital pioneers. Industries are using the latest emerging technology and are looking for professionals with the expertise to use AI day-to-day and in new, innovative ways. To meet this growing demand and prepare our students to become the leaders of tomorrow, terms like predictive modeling, machine learning and neural networks are becoming woven into the fabric of many of our courses and program curricula at the University of Louisville College of Business.

Our newest minor in development, AI in Business, will provide students a chance to learn about and use AI tools, and with courses like AI Prompt Engineering, AI in Supply Chain Management, Marketing Analytics and AI Agent Development, gain an understanding of the opportunities and challenges that lie in this emerging technology across all sectors. Completing this minor will equip students with the skills to identify opportunities for AI implementation, analyze and interpret AI-generated data and manage AI-driven projects, preparing them for leadership roles in an increasingly automated world. Additionally, through courses such as AI Ethics, students will foster critical thinking about the ethical and societal implications of AI in business. Through this mindful approach to technological progress, we ensure that as graduates and professionals, UofL students become and remain responsible and informed practitioners of AI, approaching this and other advancing technologies through an ethical lens in a rapidly evolving field.
