"I did a lot of research and found that º£½ÇÉçÇø had everything I needed."
What brought you to º£½ÇÉçÇø? Why did you choose to study here?
My hometown is Cali, Colombia. Since I was a teenager, I always knew that I wanted to study abroad. I did a lot of research and found that º£½ÇÉçÇø had everything I needed, and my parents were able to help me financially.
"Training Your Second Brain: What AI Can and Cannot Do for You" session
Curious about AI ? Explore the promises and limits of AI with º£½ÇÉçÇø faculty as they share their perspectives on how it is reshaping research, teaching, and beyond.
A special thank you to Faculty Members Scott Cassidy, Jason Pearson, Sheldon White, Brenton Dickieson, and Ryan Drew for volunteering to lead a conversation on the use of AI in their respective faculties, and reflect on how AI can and cannot assist them in their research, scholarship and teaching.
"This program offers an incredible opportunity to learn in a hands-on, innovative environment."
What brought you to º£½ÇÉçÇø? Why did you choose to study here?
I am originally from the city of Lagos in Nigeria. I came to º£½ÇÉçÇø because I graduated from high school here at Colonel Gray and it was easier to transition to the university. I later found out that there are a lot of benefits such as scholarships in attending º£½ÇÉçÇø which made my decision to go here easier.
