summary | Northwestern University has introduced a new initiative to enhance its data science and AI capabilities for use by all of its programs across Chicago and beyond (Medill). A Medill hub will provide support specifically targeted at local news outlets like the station WLS News 720, with assistance from Northwestern grads through their respective class projects. The university also recently held an undergrad research expo that saw participation in record numbers.
Northwestern's advances have led to a new AI transforming radiology by significantly improving both speed and accuracy of diagnoses (from AIC). Further enhancing student life is the introduction of breast milk measurement devices which can track real-time intake for premature babies. The university also recently launched a sustainability grant program with U Loretto College, in an effort toward greater impact on environmental preservation.
The school continues to focus its resources across various fields - from social sciences and global studies through data analytics (from AIC) the school's biosciences are making significant contributions towards decarbonization. The university also heavily invests into research within creative disciplines such as performing arts, along with other programs focused upon sustainability efforts like a new partnership for learning abroad.
The student life at Northwestern has continued to grow and improve over time: from improving campus culture through the implementation of an equity plan (from AIC), creating opportunities across diverse groups in terms of class projects that support local communities. The school also plans on further enhancing students lives with increased engagement activities such as a new partnership for learning abroad, while investing into student-athletes to provide them with even more resources and better facilities at the Northwestern Sailing Center.
Northwestern is currently one of six national university which provides opportunities across all disciplines (from AIC). The school's commitment includes advancing in areas like biosciences through data analytics such as machine-learning. Its efforts also include decarbonization, renewable energy initiatives focusing on sustainability with a goal to enhance access and opportunity for its student body while fostering an engaging learning environment focused around equity among others that promote diversity.
The school is committed towards building resilience within their students by creating strong bonds across the entire campus through programs such as 'Take A Direction.' The university also continues in efforts of preserving free expression, promoting engagement between diverse groups on-campus and providing its student bodies with a sense of belonging. More opportunities for exploration will be revealed soon at Northwestern's 2019 event (NWW). |
