AI FOR THE COMMONWEALTH

AI For The Commonwealth (AI4CW) is a student internship program managed by the Center for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence in the Manning College of Information and Computer Science (CICS) in partnership with the Public Interest Technology Initiative (PIT@UMass)

The AI4CW program brings together talented UMass CICS undergraduate students, state institutions, and UMass mentors to apply cutting edge generative AI to solve real-world challenges for Massachusetts institutions and communities.

AI For UMASS

Inspired by the broader “AI 4 The Commonwealth” state partnership program, AI4UMass is a campus-specific extension that brings together CICS undergraduates, university mentors, and project sponsors from across UMass.

Over the course of a 16-week paid internship, student teams work with faculty and staff to design, test, and implement practical AI solutions that improve how our campus works and learns.

Data Science for the Common Good

Data Science for the Common Good (DS4CG) is a summer program that trains aspiring data scientists to work on real-world problems that benefit the common good.

Our teams of computer science Master’s students collaborate with researchers, nonprofit organizations, and government agencies working in public health, education, environmental conservation, and more.

Industry Mentorship Program

The Industry Mentorship Program matches small teams of Data Science MS students with an industry-sponsored project. Over the course of an academic semester, each team works under the guidance of an industry mentor, a PhD student supervisor, and faculty domain experts.
