Deep Dive AI Programs for Returning Students

AI Deep Dives are project-based intensive courses for returning students to continue building graduate-level Artificial Intelligence skills. Explore applications of machine learning models in your domain of interest, from medicine and generative AI to deep learning. This program is designed for students who have completed AI Scholars.

AI Deep Dives Program Offerings

In the first half of the course, students learn AI’s core technologies including applications, foundational concepts, and programming tools through live online lectures and coding labs. In a multi-week final project, students apply innovative machine learning techniques to model how a self-driving car works using reinforcement learning, fight bias in criminal justice, preserve privacy in natural language processing models, detect skin cancer from photographs, or more.
