A new program at the University of Kansas aims to train high school students in writing code and developing microelectronics for artificial intelligence (AI) applications. The program, which is part of a broader effort to promote STEM education, will provide students with hands-on experience in designing and developing AI systems.
Through the program, students will learn to write code in programming languages such as Python and C++, and will also gain experience in developing microelectronics, including circuit boards and sensors. The program will also cover the basics of AI and machine learning, including data analysis and algorithm development.
The program's goal is to inspire and prepare the next generation of AI researchers and developers, and to provide them with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in this rapidly growing field. By targeting high school students, the program aims to reach students at a critical stage in their educational development, when they are still exploring their interests and career options.
