The program offers a university-style learning experience with PhD mentors and a focus on building a portfolio of real-world AI projects.
The AI Scholars Program is a hands-on, online course designed for high school students to learn core AI/ML concepts, Python coding, and build real-world AI projects. Students will gain a foundational understanding of AI and data science, mastering Python programming and key libraries like NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib. The curriculum explores machine learning concepts such as regression, classification, neural networks, computer vision, and natural language processing. Through interactive lectures, live coding walkthroughs, and hands-on group activities, students apply concepts in real-time and work on projects like predicting Titanic survival, detecting spam emails, and diagnosing breast cancer using neural networks. The program culminates in a personalized capstone AI project, allowing students to build a portfolio of 6+ impressive AI projects and earn a certificate of completion.
Each 2-hour session includes an interactive lecture introducing an AI/ML concept, followed by a live coding walkthrough where the instructor demonstrates its application, and concludes with students working on a guided hands-on project with instructor support.
This program is ideal for curious high schoolers from all backgrounds with no prior programming experience who want to explore AI and build AI-powered projects.
