announced that computer science professor Remzi Arpaci-Dusseau will become the first dean of the newly established College of Computing and Artificial Intelligence (CAI), starting July 1.<\/li>\n<li>Arpaci-Dusseau is currently leading the School of Computer, Data and Information Sciences (CDIS) which overlaps with CAI programs to be fully operational in 2027-28.<\/li>\n<li>A national dean search involving community input will begin in 2028 to identify a dean for CAI&#8217;s future growth after Arpaci-Dusseau&#8217;s initial appointment.<\/li>\n<li>The College of Computing and AI, created by the Universities of Wisconsin System Board of Regents in December, is the first academic division formed at UW-Madison since 1983.<\/li>\n<li>The new college aims to expand its offerings by recruiting 50 new faculty and establishing additional AI-related programs, certificates, majors, and courses.<\/li>\n<li>CAI intends to focus on ethical and philosophical discussions related to technology, while preparing students for a future where computing and AI bring benefits to all.<\/li>\n<li>CAI, which will comprise top-earning majors like computer science and data science, expects significant support from private donors amounting to $100 million, alongside UW-Madison&#8217;s committed $50 million annual contribution.<\/li>\n<li>Arpaci-Dusseau has played a key role in establishing CAI since 2024 and emphasizes the university&#8217;s responsibility to innovate thoughtfully and ethically.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CDIS Director to be inaugural dean of College of Computing and Artificial Intelligence
