About

This event has been postponed until further notice.

The United States faces a critical shortage of computing doctorates—a vital workforce responsible for driving advances in artificial intelligence, bolstering cybersecurity, and training the next-generation of computing innovators. A decline in advanced degrees in computing will undercut technology innovation across all sectors and put U.S. global competitiveness at risk.

A new National Academies’ report, Pathways to Doctoral Degrees in Computing, recommends addressing this anticipated shortage through improved graduate student recruitment, retention, and mentoring programs as well as targeted interventions to address hiring challenges. The report also explores how new partnerships between academia and industry could better align computing programs with broader workforce needs, and what data is needed to support these efforts. Join us for a report release webinar on Thursday, October 16 from 10:30am-11:30am ET to learn more.

About

Advances in artificial intelligence, and specifically in machine learning, are enabling new capabilities across nearly every sector of the economy. Many of these applications—such as automated vehicles, the power grid, or surgical robots—are safety critical: where malfunctions can result in harm to people, the environment, or property. While machine learning is already being deployed to enhance the capabilities of some physical systems, extending the rigorous practices of safety engineering to include machine learning-components brings significant challenges.

A new National Academies’ report identifies key issues and lays out a comprehensive research agenda to improve safety, testing, and evaluation for safety-critical systems that use machine learning. Learn more by joining members of the study committee for a report release webinar on Thursday, September 25, 2025 from 1-2pm ET.
