Eastern Launches 100% Online Master's in Applied Artificial Intelligence

September 11, 2025

St. Davids, PA: Eastern University is proud to announce the launch of its new online Master of Science in Applied Artificial Intelligence (MSAAI), a cutting-edge program designed to equip students with the technical skills, ethical foundation, and critical thinking needed to lead in one of today's fastest-growing fields.

With a 100% online, flexible, self-paced format, the program fits into the lives of working professionals and can be completed in as little as 10 months at a total cost of $9,900.

The MSAAI joins Eastern's robust suite of graduate mathematics and data science programs, including the MS in Data Science(MSDS), MS in Data Analytics(MSDA), and graduate certificates in Data Scienceand Data Analytics.

"At Eastern, we believe AI should serve people, not replace or overshadow them. Our MS in Applied AI equips students with the skills to make AI practical, responsible, and built for real-world impact. Students learn not just how to use AI, but how to use it wisely, solving problems in a way that reflects a commitment to human flourishing and the common good."

Dr. Greg Longo, Assistant Dean of the School of Mathematics and Computational Sciences

The MSAAI stands out for its practical, real-world focus. Students don't just study AI, they learn to build, evaluate, and lead applied AI solutions that drive results across industries, from cloud-based deployments to intelligent customer-facing systems. Graduates will be prepared to design, implement, and lead practical AI-driven solutions across business and technical domains; gain hands-on experience in machine learning, cloud-based AI tools, data engineering, and ethical AI deployment; and be equipped to navigate the real-world challenges and implications of a rapidly developing AI landscape.

"AI is transforming every industry. With our new MSAAI program, we're not only teaching students how to develop and apply AI technologies, but also how to do so ethically and responsibly. We're excited to prepare the next generation of leaders who will shape the future of this rapidly evolving field."

Dr. Tracey Greenwood, Dean of The College of Health & Sciences

Rooted in a student-centered, mission-driven approach, Eastern's faculty are committed educators who make AI accessible and meaningful. Graduates are prepared to step into a range of in-demand roles, including machine learning engineer, AI solutions developer, NLP engineer, data scientist, and AI business strategist.
