AI for Everyone, Everywhere
We integrate AI into education, research and industry collaborations across all disciplines, from healthcare to agriculture and aerospace to the arts. We’re enhancing teaching, driving discovery, and boosting efficiency. Embrace AI with us. Start big or start small. Just start.
Pioneering a Comprehensive Approach to AI Education
Suddenly, AI seems to be everywhere in our lives, and in our work. Our job is to prepare students for this reality, even as it evolves.
Scientists and scholars have been using machine learning, deep learning, and other forms of artificial intelligence for decades. Yet in higher education, AI remained specialized. The University of Florida has pioneered the effort to integrate AI education in every major and every college. AI Across the Curriculum is our initiative and our ethos.
An Initiative Beyond One University
As proud as we are of our efforts, we are just beginning. We hope that what we have learned about building a comprehensive approach to AI education can serve as the foundation for other universities. As we build on each other’s work, we strengthen higher education and empower our graduates.
AI to Serve Human Needs
AI is rapidly transforming the economy, from engineering to business to education, agriculture, and the arts. This takes shape as personalized medicine, harvesting robots, self-driving cars, and much more. UF’s university-wide initiative seeks to infuse AI into education and research across the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. We want to expand human-centered design so that AI serves humanity and the planet.

“Universities must engage with AI technology. Students are going to look for AI at their university of choice, and if they can’t see it there, they’re going to vote with their feet and go somewhere else where they can get it.” —Joe Glover, Interim Provost, University of Florida
A new AI-powered chat platform developed by UF scientist Nikolaos Tziolas will help Florida farmers assess hurricane-related crop damage using satellite imagery.
The future of AI innovation lies in America’s research universities, where rich academic data and interdisciplinary expertise provide the renewable fuel needed for the next big breakthrough.
