This intensive, interdisciplinary summer-long program provides training for the next generation of AI and data ethics researchers by targeting doctoral students with a background in ethics. The AI and Data Ethics Training program will have three core objectives: (1) it will increase participant’s content mastery needed to perform quality research in this area; (2) it will provide professional development opportunities to prepare participants to conduct interdisciplinary, impactful research that reaches beyond the academy; and (3) it will foster a collaborative and diverse community of AI and data ethics researchers. This project’s primary aim is to contribute to societal capacity to responsibly develop and implement AI by helping to build a diverse community of AI ethics experts who will shape and build the field of AI ethics going forward.
