This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to enhance the experience and success of Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) students in the field of generative artificial intelligence (AI). The $199,413 award to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), will fund the following key products and services:

  1. Building an education-oriented GPU cluster to improve the computational infrastructure for generative AI research and education. This will enable hands-on learning for students to work with cutting-edge generative AI techniques like generative adversarial networks, diffusion models, and large language models.

  2. Enriching existing course materials and developing new courses/initiatives to provide students with more practical experiences and exposure to scientific developments in generative AI. This will help attract more students to pursue education and address critical workforce development needs in generative AI fields.

  3. Cultivating a pipeline of students and future workforce in generative AI, targeting both technology-based programs (e.g., computer science) and application-based programs (e.g., public health).

The award aims to advance curricula, increase student engagement and expertise, and prepare a diverse workforce in the rapidly evolving field of generative AI. The project is expected to run from December 2024 to November 2026.
