Getting Started with Watson: Initiatives to Impact the Student Experience

Wednesday, October 26, 2016 | 11:40AM–12:30PM | Meeting Room 213A, Level Two
Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: Industry and Client-Led Session
Many higher education institutions are expressing interest in cognitive computing on campus but aren't sure the best place to start. A number of use cases can help transform the student experience. In this session, we will explore how leading academic institutions can partner with IBM Watson Education to create adaptive cloud and personalized solutions. We will include a new innovation consortium approach that provides a manageable roadmap for this transformational journey. This session is appropriate for academic leaders as much as technology leaders.
