Cal State Monterey Bay has introduced an AI minor starting in the 2026-27 school year.
The minor consists of a four-course sequence focused on AI and is offered by the School of Computing and Design at the College of Science.
It emphasizes ethical and responsible use of AI technologies across various disciplines.
The program intends to teach students to leverage AI as an advantage in their studies and careers.
The new minor’s introduction surprised many faculty members, particularly in the Social Sciences and Global Studies Department.
The development of the minor is separate from a CSU contract with OpenAI but responds to growing industry demand for AI knowledge.
Enrollment for the College of Extended Education’s AI certificate courses is pending, with participants allowed to join an interest list for updates.
