Developing Curricula for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics


Results

​In this task, the main objectives were the assessment of existing facilities and equipment in universities of Partner Countries and Program Countries. Based on the collected information, the following recommendations are to be considered when establishing new labs and updating existing ones to support the adoption of AIR in academic programs:

1) The collected information shows large variation between the universities in Partner Countries in terms of existing equipment, but they all agree on that the available equipment in the labs is of low to medium specifications that is inadequate to support programs specialized in AIR. 

2) Some of the existing labs can be upgraded with better equipment to serve AI and robotics needs. In other cases, there is a need to create new labs with modern high-end equipment that can be ordered through the DeCAIR project.

3) Finalizing the preliminary lists of the equipment to be ordered should be done as soon as possible in order ensure timely delivery, installation and training.
