Generative Artificial Intelligence
Faculty across Lehigh’s five colleges study artificial intelligence (AI), also known as machine learning, including the development of computer vision and large language models. More and more teachers are facilitating conversations with their students about AI in academia and industry.
Library and Technology Services and the Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning host workshops on generative AI, benefit from student perspectives, and publish guides to our website and knowledge base – all with the goal of advancing AI research and literacy.
Schedule a consultation with our staff to explore an AI-powered tool, troubleshoot interactions with AI Application Programming Interfaces, or discuss some productive uses and the dangers of AI.
VR/XR and Immersive Learning
The Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning offers resources and support for those interested in exploring the fields of VR/XR and immersive learning technologies for course use, research, or development. In addition to student access to VR experiences, we offer a variety of tools and platforms, a growing community of practice, and labs for exploration and development.
