The program offers a university-level course experience at UCLA with hands-on projects, case studies on AI's ethical impacts, and portfolio-building documentation.
The Summer Discovery Artificial Intelligence program at UCLA is a three-week pre-college course designed for high school students interested in the rapidly evolving field of AI. Students will gain a comprehensive understanding of emerging AI technologies, their diverse applications, and the critical ethical considerations surrounding their use. The curriculum integrates business strategy, design thinking, and hands-on AI/AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) applications, guiding students through the process from ideation to real-world implementation. Participants will engage in practical projects using AI programs, explore machine learning fundamentals, and delve into topics like neural networks and deep learning. The program also incorporates case studies to analyze the future implications of AI on political, economic, and social movements. Students will leave with portfolio-building documentation, including a Course Completion Certificate and a Letter of Recognition from Summer Discovery, enhancing their academic and professional profiles.
A typical day involves morning lectures and afternoon group discussions or hands-on project work, with extracurricular activities and excursions offered in the evenings and on weekends.
This program is ideal for aspiring high school students with an interest in artificial intelligence who want to explore the field's fundamentals, applications, and ethical considerations in a university setting.
