The program offers a blend of hands-on AI and machine learning projects, leadership development, and career exploration, enhanced by partnerships with organizations like IEEE and an optional college credit opportunity through American University.
The National Student Leadership Conference (NSLC) on Artificial Intelligence offers high school students an immersive, 9-day overnight program at the University of California, Berkeley. Participants delve into the real-world capabilities of AI and machine learning through hands-on projects, interactive workshops, and team challenges. The curriculum focuses on how intelligent systems learn, adapt, and make decisions across various fields, from healthcare to entertainment. Students gain practical experience by designing, training, and refining data-driven models, building Python-based projects that recognize patterns, predict outcomes, and tackle real-world challenges. Key areas explored include computer vision, natural language processing, and neural networks. The program also emphasizes the impact of innovation and the importance of responsible AI for creating a better future. Students will also participate in college and career workshops led by alumni and graduate students from top universities, gaining insights into pursuing careers involving AI. Field trips and tours provide behind-the-scenes looks at the industry, with past visits including Cloudflare, KOS AI, and the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. NSLC also partners with American University to offer an optional online college credit opportunity.
A typical day lasts from 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM, including academic and leadership sessions, activities, and off-campus trips or evening social activities.
This program is best for high school students aged 14-18 who have completed at least one year of high school and demonstrate academic excellence and leadership ability, and are interested in exploring a career in artificial intelligence.
