The 15 credit hour AI in Architecture Graduate Certificate offers a comprehensive and logical progression of courses aimed at equipping students with a strong foundation in coding and computation, as well as the theoretical and practical applications of AI and data-driven algorithms in architectural practices. With a comprehensive AI education, our students will gain a competitive edge in the job market. The Certificate will provide accessible, high-quality hybrid AI in Architecture education, making it possible to bridge the AI skills gap and equip students and professionals with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in this rapidly evolving field.

As technology continues to drive the advancement of the built environment, students in the field of architecture could significantly benefit from a strong foundation in AI and its applications. The School of Architecture is committed to providing its students with the skills and knowledge they need to excel academically and in their future careers.

STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES
The AI Certificate developed 4 new classes at the School of Architecture to cover
subjects ranging from Theory to Practice. The courses meet the requirements identified
by the university AI Task Force, with measurable goals and outcomes for future
assessment: AI Enrichment, AI Ethics, Use & Apply AI, Evaluate & Create AI.

Students enrolled in the Master of Architecture may add the Graduate Certificate in Artificial Intelligence in Architecture. The certificate shares 9 credit hours with the Master of Architecture degree. It does not add credit hours or time to a track one (advanced program, 52-credit) Master of Architecture degree. The Graduate Certificate in Artificial Intelligence in Architecture when stacked with the Master of Architecture degree requires that the thesis or PILOT required for the Master of Architecture degree be focused on an AI topic.

Applicants to this graduate certificate must have earned a bachelor’s degree from an
accredited US institution or international equivalent in Architecture, Arts, Computer &
Information Science & Engineering, Electrical & Computer Engineering, or related fields.
or
Current UF graduate students in Architecture, Arts, Computer & Information Science &
Engineering, Electrical & Computer Engineering, or related fields are eligible.
or
Working professionals in Architecture, Arts, Computer & Information Science &
Engineering, Electrical & Computer Engineering, or related fields may apply.

Applicants must have obtained a bachelor’s degree or better and a minimum upperdivision GPA of 3.0 from a regionally accredited institution or an international equivalent institution. Students may pursue just the graduate certificate without applying as master’s degree-seeking students within the graduate program. These courses may not be applied to another certificate program (per UF policy).
