Faculty Up-skilling in AI (U-AI) program


The U-AI program is designed to equip faculty with the skills and knowledge necessary to effectively integrate AI into their research practices.  Over the course of the program, participants will learn the fundamentals of AI and machine learning, including their applications and benefits, and also dive deeper into focus areas that are most relevant for their research interests.

Through a combination of interactive learning sessions, including lectures, discussions, and one-on-one consulting, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of what is technically possible with today’s state-of-the-art AI technology, and how it can be applied to their own research.  Participants will also develop the skills to critically evaluate the potential biases and limitations of AI-driven methods, helping to ensure that they use this technology in a responsible and effective way. By the end of the program, participants will have gained the knowledge and expertise necessary to design and conduct innovative AI-enhanced research projects that advance their fields.

The U-AI program is open to faculty from all disciplines and backgrounds who want to explore the potential of AI in their research. No prior experience with AI or computer programming is required. We welcome applicants with all levels of prior expertise who are interested in learning about AI and connecting with technical experts in this field.
