Do you an interest in AI and how it may impact your future?

New for this year, TECgirls are running My AI Future - a programme to support young women who are doing an EPQ. Their aim is to encourage more girls to research the impacts of AI on their future as a part of their EPQ project.

They know this might be a new topic for a lot of people so we are providing:

Research support and connections to women working in AI for interviews
Help with research questions and topic exploration
Public Speaking and Presentation Support event in January to help students with their final presentation
Hosting a TECgirls My AI Future Symposium on the 6th of March to meet EPQ requirements. Followed by an optional evening event where girls can share their research and meet industry professionals.


All of this is free for colleges and the students.

If you are interested in taking part in this project, please let me know so that we can get you signed up and can start supporting you.

If you are interested speak to Sarah Rogers, if you have a rough idea of your research area so they can start finding support/mentor matches for you. You don't need to have their research question yet, but they can help you explore the topic to check there is enough research/information for you in this space.

Please also let myself or Sarah Rogers know if there is anything we can do to help you to take part in this project.

This project is open to all girls (or anyone who identifies with the project aims) across Cornwall and the South West.
