Bachelor of Science in AI
New Mexico State University will be offering the state’s first Bachelor of Science in artificial intelligence starting in Fall 2026. The degree was approved by the state’s Higher Education Department and the Higher Learning Commission this spring.
“NMSU’s BS in AI will provide students with a strong foundation in machine learning, automated reasoning, human-computer interaction, data mining, natural language processing, autonomous agents, and ethical and societal aspects of AI,” said Enrico Pontelli, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and senior adviser to the provost for AI.
AI jobs are those where a significant portion of the tasks can be performed or aided by artificial intelligence. This means that it is likely to impact the way these jobs are done, potentially leading to automation, new job roles or changes in required skills. Pontelli emphasized AI should be viewed as an opportunity.
