Machine Learning for Geoscientists

There’s a trove of potential discoveries about the Earth hidden among large data sets – from improved climate models, to forecasting quakes. But uncovering them will take data-science skills.

A new machine learning certificate program launched by the Jackson School of Geosciences is helping equip students with the skills needed to process and analyze the huge data sets that increasingly define many areas of geosciences research.

Students enrolled in the program will learn the programming language Python, how to code AI models and AI-driven visualizations. They will also complete a research project where they can apply their skills to a geosciences question. While developed with the geoscientist in mind, the certificate is open to all degree-seeking graduate students at The University of Texas at Austin.
