This program offers a completely free, hands-on introduction to AI and machine learning for high school students, focusing on real-world applications and requiring no prior programming or advanced math skills.
The CCNY STEM Institute's Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning program is a free summer course designed for high school students (grades 9-12) to introduce them to the exciting fields of AI and machine learning. The program emphasizes hands-on projects that mimic real-life engineering applications, allowing students to explore the magical world of AI without needing advanced math or computational skills. Students will not be required to write programs from scratch but will instead modify parameters of instructor-provided examples. Upon completion, students will gain familiarity with the mechanisms behind popular AI/ML applications such as chatbots, speech recognition, language translation, character recognition, natural language processing, radar data interpretation, and biology applications. The program aims to cultivate critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and creativity through engaging activities and real-world projects.
A typical day includes hands-on projects and activities, with a provided lunch break, and opportunities for tutoring and homework support in and after class.
This program is ideal for high school students (grades 9-12) residing or attending school within the five boroughs of New York City who are curious about AI and machine learning and want to explore these fields through practical, project-based learning without prior programming or advanced math experience.
