What is the AI Summer Residency?
A fully residential 4-day immersive program hosted at Universal AI University (UAI), Karjat, co-created with MIT Global Teaching Labs (MISTI – India). Students explore how AI is transforming industries through hands-on, applied learning.

In teams, students complete a Capstone Sprint where they:
Identify a real-world problem
Design an AI-driven solution
Build a working prototype
Present at a final showcase
Focus: applied problem-solving, not passive learning.
What makes this different from a typical AI workshop?
Fully residential university immersion
Access to AI labs (AR/VR/MR, Trading Room, Creative Studios)
Faculty-led sessions
MIT academic co-creation
Structured capstone build
This is an academic residency - not a demo-based bootcamp.
