"Last fall, Lamis Fawaz was riding the subway when she looked up and saw an eye-catching ad for CUNY. I thought, I'm going there!' This week, Lamis starts as a freshman at York College, where she will major in aviation management, the first step toward her goal of becoming an airline pilot. She is one of about 240,000 students arriving on CUNY campuses for the start of a new academic year that brings new programs to better meet the needs of our students."
"There is a new Master of Science in generative AI at CUNY's School of Professional Studies and a Bachelor of Science in data science and AI at Lehman College. Medgar Evers College is introducing CUNY's first fully online education degree, a Bachelor of Arts in childhood education; Baruch College is unveiling its first doctoral program, an Ed.D. in higher education administration."
"There is also a university-wide initiative, CUNY AI for Everyone, which will give all students the opportunity to build fluency in the rapidly evolving technology. The initiative includes a free Google course in generative AI fundamentals and a variety of non-credit courses and industry-led workshops, including an interactive five-week series of in-person sessions where students work with professionals from companies including Amazon, EY, JPMorgan Chase and PwC to build AI-driven projects."
CUNY is adding multiple degree programs and initiatives to align education with workforce needs and improve student mobility. New programs include an MS in generative AI at the School of Professional Studies, a BS in data science and AI at Lehman College, Medgar Evers's fully online BA in childhood education, and Baruch's Ed.D. in higher education administration. A university-wide CUNY AI for Everyone initiative provides free generative AI coursework, non-credit options, and industry workshops with companies like Amazon, EY, JPMorgan Chase and PwC. A revamped CUNY Transfer Initiative enables seamless credit transfers across colleges and can save students up to $1,220.
