High school students visit campus for »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ AI Academy

By Luce Family Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering

High school students venture to the Northfield campus to get hands-on education surrounding artificial intelligence.

Students sit in a tiered classroom and watch a presentation at the front of the room.

High school students spent the week learning, asking questions, building confidence, and gaining hands-on experience with artificial intelligence. They worked with programming, data, machine learning, reinforcement learning, AWS DeepRacer, drones, and real AI applications.

We are proud to see »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ (ECE) faculty and supporting and leading this important initiative.

Thanks to Amrutaa Vibho, the camp instructor, for implementing and teaching the hands-on activities throughout the week. Amrutaa has worked closely with ECE faculty through research and student-centered AI activities and her work with the students this week made a real difference.

We also thank Dr. Sharon Hamilton, vice president of strategic partnerships, for her leadership and support. This camp started with her idea and was made possible through funding from the Department of War Senior Military Colleges Cyber Institute.

Congratulations to all the students. We hope they leave »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ knowing that AI is something they can understand, question, build and use responsibly. We also hope to see all of them back on campus in a few years as »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ students.
