Practical Applications of AI Technology for High Schoolers at Dartmouth

This is an intensive two-week Artificial Intelligence summer program hosted on-campus at Dartmouth College for high-school students (ages 14–17). The course combines foundational AI theory with hands-on project work: students learn Python and AI/ML libraries (Pandas, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face), study supervised and unsupervised learning, natural language processing, deep learning and large language models, and develop AI-driven web applications.

The program includes team projects, hackathons, case-study challenges, guest lectures from industry professionals, and field visits such as to the DALI Lab.

Participants live the campus experience (for residential students) or attend as day students, with supervised schedules, evening activities and weekend excursions. Outcomes include a team project demo, a coding portfolio of notebooks and scripts suitable for GitHub/Kaggle, a hackathon prototype, instructor feedback and a branded course completion certificate.

International students receive visa support information and an international registration fee applies. The program is positioned for motivated, high-achieving high-school students preparing for selective university programs and careers in technology.
