AI Generative
- Job function (e.g., overall role, assigned tasks)
- As an extern in the Undergraduate Generative AI Externship, I will focus on developing technical skills in Python and Generative AI. My role includes completing self-paced virtual training sessions, applying Python for AI applications, and gaining foundational business skills. Additionally, I will have opportunities to engage with mentors and subject matter experts to enhance my understanding of AI technologies.
- Examples of projects (e.g., list the projects you worked on and what you accomplished)
- Implementing Python-based machine learning models.
- Exploring neural networks and their applications in Generative AI.
- Engaging in real-world problem-solving scenarios to enhance AI proficiency.
- Completing tasks related to Cognizant’s Synapse program to build industry-relevant AI skills.
By the end of the program, I aim to earn Skills Accelerator badges in Python and Generative AI, demonstrating my competency in these areas.
- What you learned and how it relates to your major (e.g., describe what you learned from this experience in the context of specific courses)
- This externship will directly support my Management Information Systems major by enhancing my understanding of AI’s role in business intelligence, data analytics, and decision-making. The experience will reinforce concepts from my coursework, such as data analysis and visualization techniques useful in business strategy, AI-driven automation for improving business efficiency and operations, and machine learning applications in customer relationship management (CRM) and enterprise systems. Additionally, the externship will prepare me for technology-driven careers in consulting, IT management, and business analytics by expanding my knowledge of AI integration in modern enterprises.
