About the programme

“Each session will feature interactive talks on AI or Computer Science from one of our researchers. One of the sessions will cover UCAS applications and you will be able to ask computer science students how it is to study computer science and AI at King’s. The series will finish with a discussion panel, where you will hear from women who work in tech about their experiences of working in the field.

We expect you to attend all eight sessions of the programme. Participants who attend at least six of the sessions will be eligible for a digital certificate of completion for the programme. Sessions will be recorded so you can catch up if you miss one.

The programme is completely free, but to take part, you’ll need to have a device that you can use to join an online webinar, such as a laptop or tablet (ideal) or a phone.”
