Lisätiedot

This is a course planned in co-operation with Laurea, Microsoft, and partner companies, who are keen to grow and develop new AI talent. The focus is on the practical application of AI concepts, tools and methods to address business needs and improve business processes. The course is more about how companies are using AI solutions in their operations and less about AI as a science. Some of the AI tools covered in the course are based on Microsoft’s technologies. Representatives of Microsoft’s partner companies will participate as guest lecturers. A Career Night event on May 20th will be organized at Microsoft premises at Keilalahti with the partner companies, where you will have a chance to negotiate AI related internships and thesis topics with the companies.
