Nexford University
The first bachelor’s degree program for professionals who want to bridge the gap between AI and business, combining AI foundations, Python, cloud computing, and business strategy.
WASHINGTON, DC, USA, June 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Nexford University, the AI-native online institution rewriting what a career-related degree looks like, today announced the launch of the Bachelor of Science in AI for Business (BSAIB). This degree was built to create AI translators, a workforce role that companies can’t find quickly enough.
Most organizations have tools. Few companies have the talent to translate AI capabilities into real business outcomes. BSAIB was established to fill this gap.
Learners will build a hybrid skill set that spans AI foundations, Python, SQL, cloud computing (AWS), intelligent process automation, low-code/API integration, and responsible AI for business decisions in an applied rather than theoretical manner. The program is structured as courses that can be stacked by course pathway. Learners can start by paying for just one course at a time and progress to a full bachelor’s degree at their own pace, without having to make an all-or-nothing decision.
Statement from leadership
Fadl Al Tarji, CEO, Nexford University
“AI didn’t create a technology problem. It created a human problem. Sooner or later, every organization will have the tools. But most organizations lack experts who can bridge AI capabilities and business execution. This is the most expensive skills gap in the market today. BSAIB exists to fill it.”
Dr Anne Larson, Chief Academic Officer, University of Nexford
“BSAIB was designed around a specific question: What do professionals need to know to go beyond understanding AI theoretically to applying AI in real business? Build practical fluency across fundamentals, data, cloud, and business strategy, because these disciplines don’t work in isolation in the workplace, but in tandem. Our goal was to create a degree that reflected that reality, giving learners the technical foundation and business context to add value from day one.
About AI Translator — and why Nexford named it so
AI translators are professionals who bridge the gap between business strategy and AI execution. I’m not a pure engineer. Not non-technical executives. Those who understand the business goals can direct the AI to achieve those goals and communicate the output to the people who need to act on it.
Nexford invented and owns this role definition as a brand area. AI translator is not a buzzword. This is a position that companies don’t yet know how to advertise. BSAIB creates that person.
