AI & Computer Science with Jaiden
Segment #6 from Long Island University - Episode 2
Transcript
Let’s get to know Jaiden, a senior studying computer science. He’s the perfect guide to explore LIU’s School of Engineering, artificial Intelligence and Computer science, which is leading the way into the future. This includes the nation’s first digital engineering program and designation as a center of excellence by Dassault Systems, one of only a handful globally. Plus, this partnership has equipped LIU’s campuses with some of the latest amazing technology. Jaiden, you’re up.
– Thanks, Alex. What’s going on everyone? I was really excited to find a strong computer science program right in the heart of New York City, at Long Island University I found exactly that and so much more. LIU isn’t just dedicated to computer science. It’s at the forefront of the industry with programs and artificial intelligence and the nation’s first and only accredited digital engineering program. As a computer science major, I landed an on-campus job at Browse, LIU student run technology and one of a handful of certified campus Apple stores in the country. I help fellow students troubleshoot tech issues and recommend devices that fit their needs. It’s a great way to connect with others while applying what I’ve learned in real world situations. Outside of class I love hanging out in the eSports arena, our state-of-the-art complex where my classmates and I can unwind and compete in gaming tournaments. The opportunities that LIU both in and out of the classroom really help set me apart and give me practical experience from industry experts. One standout experience has been our partnership with Dassault Systems, a leader in 3D simulation technology. LIU offers unique opportunities through this collaboration, including access to our 3D simulation lab and center of excellence. This space gives us access to cutting edge software that advances fields like pharmaceutical sciences and healthcare, providing a hands-on learning experience. Our faculty experience with current trends in artificial intelligence and industry experts from many of our partnerships ensure that we receive the best education possible. Thanks to my experiences at LIU, I landed an internship at a prestigious investment bank. Honestly, when I’d first arrived, I never imagined I’d have access to so many opportunities or make such valuable connections. I know these experiences will follow me throughout my career. That’s all for me. Sending it back to you, Alex.
– Thanks Jaiden for sharing your incredible journey. It’s clear that you found a perfect match at LIU, not only with the top tier computer science program, but with the unique opportunities that set you apart. It’s inspiring to hear how these experiences are already shaping your future. Keep up the amazing work, Jaiden, and thanks again.
