The demand for well-educated IT specialists, including those who specialize in artificial intelligence or machine learning, has been growing for years. Their presence in the labor market is necessary today, also in areas that have not been associated with IT so far. In a constantly changing world and with the constant pressure to modernize services and products, it is often up to IT experts to “be or not be” a company or organization. The lack of ICT specialists is a huge gap that requires management. For this reason, more and more universities supplement the offer of studies with courses dedicated to artificial intelligence and machine learning or decide on interdisciplinary cooperation with universities or research and development centers representing different disciplines or activity profiles.
"The cooperation of IDEAS NCBR with universities is aimed at supporting the creation of an efficient AI system in the country. That is why we are so pleased with the partnership agreement signed with the Lodz University of Technology. This is another step that brings us closer to building a world-class innovation ecosystem in Poland in the area of SI,” Dr. Piotr Sankowski, professor at the University of Warsaw, president of IDEAS NCBR, explained.
