One of my CS advisees has expressed a serious interest in AI, but Cornell has no AI courses or researchers. He is now a second semester sophmore, and plans to go to graduate school to do AI work. What courses should I recommend for him? I recommended the following electives: Intro to Cognitive Psychology (1 semester) Introductory Linguistics (2 semesters) Mathematical Logic (1 semester) as taught by Math, not Philosophy Programming Languages (1 semester) (our only course that does anything with Lisp) He could take other courses (instead of the computer architecture sequence) in his current schedule. What do the AI researchers and students recommend as the "best" background for an undergrad? Thanks for the help, Kevin Karplus
