Jakarta, INTI - In today's rapidly evolving digital transformation era, artificial intelligence (AI) has become a cornerstone of innovation across industries, powering operational automation, data analytics, and creative development.
As AI adoption continues to expand across everyday digital activities, the demand for professionals with advanced AI expertise is growing significantly. Recognizing this shift, BINUS University sees a critical opportunity to equip the next generation with the knowledge, adaptability, and leadership skills needed to drive responsible technological innovation.
BINUS Expands AI Education Nationwide
To address this growing demand, BINUS University is strengthening Indonesia's digital talent ecosystem by expanding its Artificial Intelligence (AI) program. Following the successful implementation of the program at BINUS @Kemanggisan and BINUS @Alam Sutera, the university will officially introduce the AI curriculum at BINUS @Bekasi, BINUS @Bandung, BINUS @Malang, and BINUS @Semarang. In addition, the Computer Science program at BINUS @Medan will further enhance its AI specialization.
The expansion marks a strategic initiative to ensure equal access to high-quality technology education across Indonesia. Students at BINUS campuses will gain comprehensive exposure to AI-related disciplines, including Computer Vision, IoT & Robotics, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning, and Deep Learning. Through this intensive curriculum, students will develop strong technical competencies alongside the analytical skills required to thrive in an increasingly AI-driven world.
