New Data Sicence and AI Academy at North Carolina State University

The newly renamed NC State Data Science and AI Academy will prepare students to become leaders in the fields of data and AI. An interdisciplinary effort, the DSA will offer new courses and credentials across colleges.

But, data science and AI will impact nearly every job, innovation and application in the coming years,” said Senior Vice Provost for University Interdisciplinary Programs Rob Dunn. “NC State will lead not by having a singular department in this area, but by infusing data science and AI throughout the curriculum, research and application.”
