If you are excited by the revolution in AI and would like to play a part in it, we would love to hear from you!

Who is this opportunity for?

Queen Mary University of London aims to encourage students from diverse backgrounds to consider a future in AI and related disciplines and to increase the number of people from groups currently underrepresented in the field. 

We hope to help build an AI community where everyone can participate and thrive - irrespective of their backgrounds. 

In the spirit of this ambition, applications will be considered from students from low-income backgrounds and other underrepresented groups in AI such as students who identify a female and students from Black, Asian, and ethnic minority backgrounds.
