Artificial intelligence and machine learning present new career opportunities for todays students who will become the next academic researchers and innovative professionals across sectors. Given the potential for these students to positively transform society, the San Diego Supercomputer Center and the Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California (CENIC) are providing an AI Education infrastructure called CENIC AI Resource (CENIC AIR) for the entire CENIC community grades K-12, public libraries, community colleges and the California State University (CSU) system.

The infrastructure is interoperable with what UC San Diego uses internally to teach thousands of students, including HDSI students who participate in Capstone Program projects, across dozens of courses every quarter.

Going forward, SDSC and CENIC will use the National Data Platform a project aimed at a service ecosystem to make access to and use of scientific data open and equitable across a broad range of communities, including traditionally underrepresented researchers to integrate educational content curation into this infrastructure so that educators across all of these segments can share data, exercises, projects and course content.

We expect this innovative use of technology to significantly decrease the friction for students moving between segments, thus benefitting transfer students from community colleges to CSU or UC campuses,as well as K-12 to college students, and college to Ph.D. students, said Frank Wrthwein, director of SDSC.
