California State University (CSU) has initiated a large-scale effort to enhance artificial intelligence education across its 23 campuses. This initiative aims to provide students, particularly those from low-income backgrounds and first-generation college attendees, with equitable access to AI tools and training. Collaborating with major tech companies and the governor's office, CSU will identify necessary AI skills for the workforce and offer internships for real-world experience. This comprehensive strategy is designed to position CSU as a leader in the responsible adoption of AI in higher education, aiming to fulfill the workforce needs of California's AI-driven economy.
We are proud to announce this innovative, highly collaborative public-private initiative that will position the CSU as a global leader among higher education systems in the impactful, responsible and equitable adoption of artificial intelligence.
The effort started last year, after tech leaders told Newsom's office they could not find enough Californians or Americans overall equipped with the AI skills demanded by companies.
