The course "Practical Methodologies and Ethics in AI" equips learners with the essential skills needed to build, evaluate, and deploy deep learning models, while also addressing critical ethical considerations in AI. Through hands-on projects and case studies, you’ll explore the practical methodologies used to train models effectively, troubleshoot issues, and apply structured probabilistic approaches to manage uncertainty. A key highlight of the course is its emphasis on ethics, enabling you to identify and address bias, fairness, and societal implications throughout the AI lifecycle. By integrating structured probabilistic models with deep learning, you’ll gain the ability to create robust, interpretable AI systems that tackle real-world challenges.

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
