"The greatest opportunity AI creates for Dakota State University is not simply greater efficiency. It is the opportunity to create more time for human engagement while giving students real experience solving the kinds of problems they will encounter throughout their careers."

President and CEO, HealthPartners, Bloomington, Minn.
"Through DSU’s growing portfolio of AI-focused academic programs, including a master’s pathway for those with a non-technical undergraduate degree, we can extend [AI experience] across disciplines and into employer partnerships. The goal is to graduate students who can recognize a problem, determine whether and how AI can improve it, and put that technology to work in ways that make organizations and the people within them more effective."
