This is a follow-up to our meeting on 9/20/22 with Surestart in which we discussed faculty providing student recommendations for SureStart Virtual AI Learning Program (VAIL) Spring 2023 program. https://mysurestart.applytojob.com/apply/zl6wNfPpcY/SureStart-Virtual-AI-Learning-Program-VAIL-Spring-2023?source=Website

Public Affairs and Partnerships have secured 9 seats for the three departments represented:

 ·      Computer Systems Technology

·      Mechanical Engineering

·      Computer Engineering

Surestart has requested 7 recommendations from each department as they will consider up to 12 additional students from City Tech if they are exceptional for a total of up to 21 seats! The cost of 5k per student was paid by a Surestart funder. There are no costs for the student or City Tech. 
Students selected for the 5-week intensive will also be assigned Surestart mentors and will continue to work with students through the summer on resume and career development skills.  Surestart will work with its corporate partners to secure opportunities for the best-performing students over summer 2023.      Recommendations are due by Monday, December 12, 2022 COB.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Careers

Robotics for a better, more creative and innovative world

Our teachless controller makes robots more intelligent and easy to use. The result? More prolific and capable robots.

We’re starting in the warehouse, helping logistics operations address major long-term challenges finding and retaining labor. Because when robots take on dirty, tedious or dangerous tasks, available labor can be deployed more effectively.

But we’re not stopping there. We believe in a future where endeavors of any size can reap the benefits of intelligent automation.
