The Maine College of Engineering and Computing at the University of Maine will host the state鈥檚 first Mark Cuban Foundation AI Bootcamp this fall in Orono.
The free, 20-hour program will give high school students in grades 9-12 hands-on experience with artificial intelligence. Participants will explore generative AI, ethics and real-world applications in fields including health care, business, computer science, sports, sustainability and the arts. Students will work with industry mentors, collaborate with peers and create a capstone project that addresses a real-world challenge.
No coding or computer science experience is required, and all necessary devices and materials will be provided. Students who are curious about technology, creativity, entrepreneurship or how AI is shaping future careers are encouraged to apply.
The bootcamp will be held over three Saturdays: Oct. 31, Nov. 7 and Nov. 14. Students must attend all three sessions.
