With over one-third of entry-level job postings and 50% of all technology roles now calling for AI skills, hands-on exposure to artificial intelligence has quickly shifted from a resume booster to an essential requirement for college graduates entering the workforce. But how do foundational computer science concepts translate into real-world AI applications and high-impact career opportunities?

Join us for an interactive virtual panel hosted by UMBC’s Computer Science undergraduate program at UMBC-Shady Grove. Featuring a panel of student alumni and leading industry partners, this event explores the rise of artificial intelligence, its expanding role across the workplace, and how classroom lessons directly power career success.
