AI and Machine Learning for Environment and Sustainability
Our AI and Machine Learning for Environment and Sustainability training programmes provide learners with the knowledge and skills to utilise the latest developments in AI and Machine Learning (ML) within their organisation.
Building on the University’s world-renowned strengths in environment, sustainability and climate science and our rapidly expanding data science and AI capabilities, our AI / ML training programmes are designed for organisations and individuals working in the environment and sustainability sectors. Content and examples are focused on environmental / sustainability use cases, platforms and data formats, to give direct relevance to operational activities in the green economy.
Who is it for?
Our ML Foundation training programmes are designed for a broad range of learners who are reasonably proficient working with data and who have some experience of programming and handling large datasets, including those in scientific and technical roles.
Custom programme
Our custom ML Foundation Training for Environment and Sustainability programmes are tailor-made for individual organisations. They enable and enhance use of AI / ML within the context of a particular organisation, using organisational data and platforms, and focused on the organisation’s environment and sustainability interests.
Delivered flexibly in the format that best suits your organisation (in-person, online or a mix of both), our custom ML Foundation training programmes typically include modules such as:
- Learning From Data
- Supervised Machine Learning 1: Regression
- Data Wrangling
- Supervised Machine Learning 2: Classification
- Neural Networks
- Unsupervised Machine Learning
- Responsible AI
- Advanced Machine Learning for <your sector>
- Mini-research project utilising <your data>
Open programme
Periodically we run an open programme designed for individuals from many organisations. Content is similar to the custom programmes described above, with a more generalised approach to suit a broad range of interests, use cases and data types.
