At the heart of AIMS South Africa is our academic programme: intensive postgraduate training in the mathematical sciences and artificial intelligence, delivered through a distinctive collaborative teaching model.

AIMS South Africa does not operate like a traditional university department with a large permanent faculty. Instead, we draw on global collaborations to support teaching and research, bringing students into contact with a dynamic community of visiting lecturers, tutors, mentors and researchers.

This model exposes students to a wide range of expertise, research areas and ways of thinking, preparing them to become agile problem-solvers for research, industry, education, technology and public service.

The AIMS Pilot Workshop for the AI Research Foundations for Higher Education programme kicked off on Monday 15 June.

This is a dry run of the lecturer training workshops that will be delivered across four African countries as part of the Google.org-supported initiative to strengthen AI education across universities in Africa.

Hosted at AIMS South Africa in Muizenberg, the pilot workshop brings together lecturers and researchers from the University of Mpumalanga, Stellenbosch University, and Rhodes University, who will go on to deliver this training to students on their own campuses.

Participants will work through technical lectures built on Google DeepMind's AI Research Foundations course, peer teaching practice, and pedagogical design sessions, with social and networking activities woven throughout.

Stay tuned for more updates. Thanks to our sponsor and partners for making this possible!

AIMS South Africaโ€™s academic model depends on collaboration.

We welcome researchers, lecturers and academic partners who want to contribute to advanced training in the mathematical sciences and help develop the next generation of African scientists, innovators and problem-solvers.

Teaching, mentoring or collaborating with AIMS is an opportunity to engage with talented students from across Africa in a dynamic, residential and highly collaborative learning environment.
