Careers in computer and information technology are growing faster than average , and with advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning , cybersecurity , and web development , opportunities are expected to rise . *

Computer Information Science ( CIS )

To provide you with the skills you need to thrive in this industry , GMercyU ’ s CIS Program was designed to evolve constantly as new technologies emerge .
This is how we became one of the first computer programs in the region to build a dedicated hacking and countermeasures lab and to integrate mobile application development into our curriculum . The program is also one of the first in the area to offer a concentration in artificial intelligence and machine learning .
CIS Concentrations
• Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning This in-demand concentration will prepare students for success in one of the hottest fields in computing . Through robust instruction in programming and algorithms , students will prepare to become artificial intelligence engineers , ready to develop , test , and implement AI models that will enable machines to run autonomously and mimic human behavior .
In addition to practical hands-on learning , students will be introduced to the ethical challenges these powerful technologies create so they can become responsible innovators of future AI technologies .
