Intel Aims To Bring AI Education To Community Colleges
Intel is aiming to bring artificial intelligence curriculum to community college via an associate degree program in Tempe, Arizona.
The chip giant designed an associate degree program for Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD) based in Tempe, Arizona. The Arizona Commerce Authority provided a workforce grant of $100,000 to support the program.
Intel's effort is notable since it is democratizing AI in the higher educational ranks. In addition to providing jobs to students in various industries, community colleges can help diversify the worker base in AI. The associate degree can be transferred to a four-year college.
