Initiative overview

The project “Students of Natural Sciences: Pioneers in Artificial Intelligence” is part of the wider “Science For You – SciFy” initiative aimed at engaging students with cutting-edge technologies. It creates an online AI course tailored specifically to the needs of science students.

The course is enriched with:

  • Instructional videos explaining core AI concepts
