Samsung Gulf Electronics, in partnership with the Qatar Ministry of Sports and Youth and Youth Entrepreneur Club, announced the launch of the Samsung Innovation Campus (SIC) in Qatar, bringing its signature Artificial Intelligence (AI) course to the country. The introduction of SIC, Samsung's global citizenship program in the country supports Qatar Vision 2030, which has digital transformation as a key tenet.
Under the theme "Together for Tomorrow! Enabling People", the 3-month course provides a unique opportunity for determined learners with a STEAM background (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) to build on their knowledge in machine learning (ML) and establish a strong understanding of the fundamentals of AI and its related applications.
An MoU establishing SIC Qatar was signed between Samsung and the Ministry of Sports and Youth, and the Youth Entrepreneur Club on 5 October 2023 in Doha.
The course's specialized curriculum will teach participants about the prominent tools and applications in AI and machine learning-related workplaces. Following an introduction to AI and machine learning, successful applicants will benefit from interactions with an expert instructor, as well as live online sessions, to develop a clear understanding of technical processes. The course is delivered through a blended learning, self-paced format, with participants given exercises for each module and access to content presentations and pre-recorded videos covering statistics, algorithms, and programming.
By the end of the course, students will be able to understand the statistical and mathematical foundation of machine learning, comprehend the utility of Python and the libraries used for machine learning algorithms, the application of these algorithms to real data sets, and learn to build projects while following the data science lifecycle. To achieve a certificate of completion, participants will also be expected to attend the course and complete the tasks and quizzes required to demonstrate their progress.
Interested participants can take an exciting next step towards empowering their future by enrolling before the 2 November 2023 application deadline. Limited spaces are available, and applicants will be informed if they have been successful no later than 9 November 2023. Past completion of high school-level STEM courses or higher education is an entry requirement, as is proficiency in linear algebra and the basics of programming, calculus, and the probability theory.
Next-generation technologies like AI are reshaping the world, presenting consumers, businesses, governments, and societies with many valuable benefits – even influencing how users interact with the next wave of social media and communication tools. As Qatar emerges as a centre of excellence in the field, the Samsung Innovation Campus will offer youth and future job seekers access to content, tools and applications needed to place them ahead of the curve.
