Indiana University-Indianapolis Online Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence

This is a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science in AI from Indiana University Indianapolis, offered on campus or online with three start dates a year. It stands out for an internship option, two industry certifications built into the degree, and a five-year bachelor's-plus-master's path. Credits and tuition aren't printed on the program page.

Indiana University Indianapolis is a public university in Indianapolis, Indiana, and the AI degree comes from its Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering. The program page lists the format as on-campus or online, and it doesn't print any in-person requirement for the online route, so we treat it as fully online. Confirm that with admissions before you enroll.

You choose between a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Science. The B.S. generally leans harder on math and programming, and the B.A. gives you more room for the context around AI. Ask which fits the career you want, because the two tracks lead to different jobs.

Federal completions data shows 173 degrees awarded under the AI and related computing codes we track here, and IU Indianapolis graduates 54% of its students overall.

The full rubric is on the methodology page.

The program is offered on campus or online, with Fall, Spring or Summer start dates. That's three starts a year, which is useful if you don't want to wait until fall to begin.

Ask how classes meet and whether you'd ever need to visit Indianapolis. Ask whether an online student gets the same internship access as someone living nearby. Industry partners are often local, so remote students should find out how placements work before counting on that option.

Who It Fits

• You want a hands-on start in AI, with an internship option that places you on AI projects with industry partners.
• You like the idea of finishing with industry certifications. The page says you'll earn the Rasa AI Assistant Developer and Cocohub certifications as part of the degree.
• You're planning a master's later and want to compress the timeline with the accelerated five-year bachelor's-plus-master's route.
• You want a choice between a B.A. and a B.S. under the same program.

Who Should Skip It

• You need a posted price before you apply. No credit total or tuition is on the program page.
• You want the clearest, most documented online path. The page presents the program as on campus or online, so the online experience is less spelled out than a program built only for distance students.
• You'd like more options to compare. Indiana University Bloomington also offers an online AI bachelor's, so look at both before you choose.

Here is what sets the program apart from a generic computing degree.

You earn two certifications along the way, Rasa AI Assistant Developer and Cocohub. The names suggest assistant-building work, so ask which courses prepare you for each one. The internship option places you on AI-related work with industry partners. Ask for the plan of study to see which courses feed each certification.

Ask for the online rate for your residency, plus fees, and whether the certifications cost extra. If you take the five-year bachelor's-plus-master's route, also ask how the graduate credits are billed, since graduate rates are usually higher than undergraduate ones.
