The program offers a unique blend of rigorous academic exploration in AI and robotics with a strong emphasis on ethical considerations and real-world project-based learning, guided by university faculty and industry experts.
The Tufts University Pre-College: AI & Robotics program offers high school students an immersive, hands-on experience in artificial intelligence and robotics. Participants delve into the foundational principles of machine learning and engage in practical projects, including robot design and programming. The curriculum explores the history and societal impact of AI, covering both low-level data analysis techniques and the use of high-end comprehensive systems. Students gain proficiency in Python for implementing AI systems and utilizing larger platforms through packages and APIs. A significant component of the program involves working in small groups to identify real-world problems, research relevant criteria, and design, prototype, and test technical solutions. The program culminates in a public presentation where students showcase their problem and designed solution via a video presentation. Ethical considerations in AI and machine learning are also integrated into discussions, fostering a well-rounded understanding of the technology's implications.
A typical day involves daily lectures, activities, and hands-on challenges focusing on machine learning and artificial intelligence, followed by group work on engineering design projects and opportunities for social activities and exploring campus life.
This program is ideal for high school students with prior coding or programming experience who are eager to explore artificial intelligence and machine learning through hands-on projects and ethical discussions.
