The head of the Higher Education Council (YÖK) Erol Özvar revealed plans to implement new synthetic intelligence-focused packages in universities for the forthcoming 2024-25 educational 12 months Wednesday.
“Our universities will begin to provide competence in this field to our students through these programs,” Özvar declared on Nov. 29 through the inauguration ceremony of a neuroscientific analysis heart (NÖROM) within the capital of Ankara, a collaborative effort between Gazi University, Ankara University and Middle East Technical University (ODTÜ).
The heart is designed to accumulate neuroscience knowledge, develop neurotechnological options and set up a complete neuroscience ecosystem.
Özvar highlighted the interdisciplinary nature of NÖROM’s analysis, emphasizing its potential to speed up developments in synthetic intelligence.
“In this regard, I would like to share that NÖROM’s activities coincide with YÖK’s artificial intelligence vision, and I wholeheartedly believe that our center will make significant contributions to our artificial intelligence studies,” said Özvar.
The president of the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye (TÜBİTAK), Hasan Mandal, additionally current on the ceremony, expressed optimism in regards to the heart’s potential to deal with future challenges by way of modern approaches.
“I think this is one of the most pioneering initiatives that can be transformed into a research infrastructure… through a process to be carried out by YÖK, the Education Ministry and TÜBİTAK,” he remarked.
