COURSE INFO

PREVIOUS CODE	CMAA 6019E
DESCRIPTION	This course reimagines human-robot interaction (HRI) through the lenses of human-computer interaction (HCI), speculative design, and artistic practice, centering creativity, empathy, and critical inquiry over technical implementation. Students will have hands-on opportunities to work directly with a few types of robotics, including but not limited to robotics arms, dogs, small swarms, drones, and so on. Through implementing a robotics prototype for human-robot interaction purposes, this course will lead students to explore how social robots amplify human agency, foster collaboration and artistic creation, and challenge societal norms in spaces ranging from homes and hospitals to galleries and public installations. The course will cover both theoretical and technical foundations through seminars, discussions of cutting-edge research papers, technical tutorials, and collaborative work on an empirical, practical, or creative robotics research project.

COURSE INFO

DESCRIPTION	This course introduces students to the world of computer science, data analysis, and artificial intelligence. Through a series of lectures and hands-on exercises, students will learn the basics of each of these disciplines, and how they can be used to solve real-world problems. It will cover the following topics: an introduction to computer science, including an overview of its principles and concepts; the basics of data analysis, including methods for collecting, organizing, and analyzing data; an introduction to artificial intelligence, including an exploration of its various applications and capabilities; and an examination of how computer science, data analysis, and artificial intelligence can be used in combination to solve real-world problems. Upon completion of this course, students will have a strong foundation on which to build more advanced knowledge in these exciting fields.
