Applied AI—Connect

For the 2025–2026 academic year, MPS Applied AI and MPS Applied AI Connect are being offered as a collaboration between the College of Professional Studies (CPS) and the Office of the Provost. During this period, students will follow Northeastern University’s Graduate (GR) Academic Calendar and be governed by the academic policies and procedures documented in the university’s Graduate Catalog. CPS will continue to provide each student with full academic and student support services (e.g., academic advising services, co-op and career advising services, International Tutoring Center, etc.).

Beginning in the 2026–2027 academic year, students enrolled in MPS Applied AI and MPS Applied AI Connect will transition to the College of Professional Studies, and their official college designation will be updated accordingly in the academic system of record. At that time, students will be governed by CPS’ academic policies and procedures within the university’s Graduate Catalog.
