Programme Schedule - BeyondAI​

Here is the preliminary schedule of the nine-week programme BeyondAI: Introduction to AI and Research. Please note that this schedule might change. During Weeks 4-8, where participants will be working on their research projects there will be one 60 min mentor meeting each week, which will be scheduled between the group and the mentor individually. 

  • From 07/10/24 to 27/10/24 all times are given in CEST (GMT + 2)
  • From 28/10/24 to 06/12/24 all times are given in CET (GMT + 1)
