Launched in April 2023, the Artificial Intelligence and Society Fellowship at Arizona State University’s School for the Future of Innovation in Society, in collaboration with the New York Academy of Sciences, was developed to address the growing need for interdisciplinary scholarship across the areas of AI, the social sciences, and the humanities. This postdoctoral training program aims to develop thought leaders, research scholars, and public figures equipped to drive innovation around AI and its uses in advancing public interest in society.
Fellows are mentored by faculty from ASU’s College of Global Futures, Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering, and other units; participate in internships with public, private, and non-profit partners; and professional development training and service-learning through the New York Academy of Sciences’ specialized programming. Fellows’ time is shared among the New York Academy of Sciences, Arizona State University, and internship sites.
