Leadership Academy

The Nittany AI Leadership Academy explores how to leverage AI to address real-world problems and fuel innovation. This program provides students with hands-on experience identifying key societal and Penn State challenges and utilizing technology to solve them.

Undergraduate students of all majors are invited to apply for this program. No pre-requisite courses or existing technological background is required to participate. Note that this program does not cover the technical/coding aspects of AI but rather its societal impact and ethical application.
