What you should study if you want to get a deeper understanding of AI

4/23/2025

So back in 2021 I had a discussion with a friend of mine who - at that time - was studying computer science at the HAW (Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften). Our discussion was basically about what topics one should study, in order to get a broader understanding of the fundamentals of AI.

This is the list he came up with:

  • Linear Algebra
  • Stochastic
  • Neural Networks
  • Clustering
  • Monte Carlo Tree Search
  • Graph Theory
  • Trees
  • Recursion
