The topic of artificial intelligence (AI) has an impact on many areas at the University of Jena: from its use in classes and the use of text-generating tools by students to its research and application in science.

There are numerous research projects at the University of Jena that deal with the development and application of AI. These include, for example, projects in the area of image processing, robotics and data analysis. The results of this research work not only help to expand our understanding of AI, but also have the potential to actively meet the social challenges of our time.

On this page, we provide a brief overview of the activities and tenders of the University of Jena in the field of artificial intelligence.
