Blazer Core Curriculum
AI in the Blazer Core Curriculum
UAB’s unique core curriculum is designed to provide students with fundamental communication, analytical, and reasoning skills while allowing them to customize their courses in ways that fit their major, their interests, and their academic and career goals.
Rather than create standalone disciplines focused on AI, we’ve integrated information about the technology and its moral, ethical, and societal impacts throughout the Blazer Core Curriculum for a robust education in how AI is implemented across various domains. This multidisciplinary approach equips students to fully understand AI tools and how their deployment is reshaping our lives.
