- What is CSC 319 at the University of Uyo?
- CSC 319 (Artificial Intelligence) is a 2-unit, 300 Level course taught in the First Semester at the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. It is a foundation course taken by undergraduates across the university's programmes, not one department's course. Foundations of AI: intelligent agents, search algorithms, knowledge representation, semantic networks, natural language processing, and expert systems. Directly relevant to AI-powered anomaly detection, prediction, and automated analysis across computing.
- Which programmes take CSC 319?
- CSC 319 is a foundation course taken by undergraduates across University of Uyo programmes — it belongs to the university, not to one department. Whatever your department, Areté covers it with the same outline, textbooks and study tips.
