Blue Marble University is always looking for new popular programs to offer at our very low tuition, currently only $3750 USD per year with a no-interest payment plan.

We are now offering an amazing online doctoral program in:

Artificial Intelligence- Applications and Tools

You are now either “in” AI or “out”. This program brings you up to date on current artificial intelligence applications and tools you can use right now…in EVERY human endeavor!!!

Immediately and immensely relevant in business operations, design, media, education, marketing, robotics, and entrepreneurship, this degree will be of great interest to many employers struggling to implement and to understand applications for this new field.

Because AI is a rapidly developing field penetrating all walks of life, our Curriculum is dynamic not static. In order to keep up with the latest advances, courses are updated every 6 months with new materials, and in fact, course offerings are changed and updated as well.

This is a modern, applied AI literacy curriculum focused not on engineering artificial intelligence from scratch, but rather on mastering, comparing, and applying leading consumer and business facing AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Midjourney, Claude, Runway, Sora, and others. Along the way, we also delve into robotics applications.

Curriculum

The Curriculum is outlined below, and courses are created and re-worked on the fly with each new term. Our goal is to teach you how to use AI in your work, your job, your classroom. And most importantly, how AI applications are used and benefit all kinds of business. Consequently your specific curriculum may vary, but the overall goal and intent…to learn how to apply these new tools…remain the same. Click on Curriculum to make bigger!

Blue Marble University PhD in Artificial Intelligence. Blue Marble University-The AI University

Credits:
1 Blue Marble University Credit = 1 USA Semester Credit. Although registered in the Commonwealth of Dominica, we follow the USA Code of Federal Regulations requiring “one hour of classroom or direct faculty instruction [or 60 minutes of preparation in a correspondence course] and a minimum of two hours of out of class student work each week for approximately fifteen weeks for one semester or trimester hour of credit”, which translates to 15 hours of notational learning plus 30 hours of study. Each Term is 15 weeks. Blue Marble University operates all year round with no breaks. Each term is 15 weeks, comparable to a standard US semester of 15 weeks. Consequently, each student can complete the equivalent of three 15-week terms per year.

3. Our 5 year combined Bachelor of Science (BS)/Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Degrees for For High School Graduates, Homeschoolers, Non-traditional Students. 

All High School students are welcome to apply regardless of academics or grades. Poor grades can mean you did poor work, but more often than not they reflect other issues or problems you may have been having, like bullying, or other things that affected your grades. We try to look at the whole picture the student presents. We do not concern ourselves with high school grades. We only ask one question: Is this applicant likely to succeed in our program? So, we have the cure for messy high school performance. Can a high school student with bad grades get accepted to college? At Blue Marble University, we have the cure for bad high school grades. High school students with bad grades get a second chance at a top quality college education.

Accreditation

Because Blue Marble University is based in Dominica, you don’t need to worry about our accreditation. Why? Because as a foreign educational institution,  we don’t need to be accredited in the U.S. Rather, after you graduate, most students are able to obtain a certificate from CUFCE.org, a  foreign education evaluator, that your Ph.D. degree from Blue Marble University is the same as if you went to a regionally accredited US college or university. CUFCE.org reports are accepted and approved by the US Office of Personnel Management, as well as the US State Department.

As noted by the US Department of Education: “Unaccredited institutions are not reviewed against a set of standards to determine the quality of their education and training. This does not necessarily mean that an unaccredited institution is of poor quality…Some unaccredited institutions and programs provide significant, legitimate academic work.”

You can read more about what we are talking about here: https://bluemarbleuniversity.com/academics/accreditation/

The reality is that most employers do not require any special paperwork, including most State employers, and will accept your degree from Blue Marble University. Most employers review your credentials, review your course work, investigate the institution website and make their own judgment as to the qualifications of an applicant.

Some students ask about whether our degree can qualify for USA federal government jobs.

For USA Federal Government jobs, the main US Jobs website states: “Education completed in foreign colleges or universities may be used to meet the above requirements if you can show that the foreign education is comparable to that received in an accredited educational institution in the United States.”

The Office of Personnel Management states on their website:

“Education completed outside of the United States must be deemed equivalent to that gained in conventional/accredited U.S. education programs to be acceptable for Federal employment”…. “For Federal employment, education received in foreign colleges or universities will be considered acceptable provided…the candidate submits an evaluation of the coursework from a private professional organization specializing in interpretation of foreign educational credentials….If the requested evaluation shows the foreign education to be legitimate and comparable to that expected of a candidate with U.S. credentials, it may be accepted at the discretion of the agency.“

For Our International Students

Although Blue Marble University has no U.S. accreditation, we hold an international accreditation for our international students from Europe, Middle East, and Africa. We are accredited by a well respected accreditor: International Quality Assurance for Higher Education (QAHE for short).

QAHE is indirectly recognized by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)  through its arrangements with the World Accreditation Commission (WAC).  You can learn more about QAHE Here:  https://www.qahe.org and you may visit QAHE and verify our accreditation at this link: https://www.qahe.org/institute/blue-marble-university/
