    AI Fellowship Programme summary

    Students develop an original artificial intelligence project rather than following a fixed group brief. The work moves from exploration and model selection through data analysis and execution.

    Each participant receives one-to-one support from an AI practitioner or researcher, including help assessing feasibility and troubleshooting code.

    It suits students who already understand basic Python or have completed AI Scholars and are ready to take ownership of an individual project.

    What is AI Fellowship?

    The AI Fellowship is an independent project program from Veritas AI. Students choose a field of interest, identify a question and determine the machine learning model needed to investigate it.

    The experience progresses through exploration, ideation, data analysis and project execution. An individual mentor helps the student test feasibility, solve coding problems and develop the final work before a peer presentation.

    Why Succeed highlights AI Fellowship Programme

    • The program centres on an original individual project rather than a predetermined group assignment.

    • Twelve one-to-one sessions provide sustained access to an AI practitioner or researcher.

    • The phased structure takes students from question selection and feasibility analysis to project execution.

    • Students can tailor the output as an app, software, research paper or presentation.

    • Research-paper students can access support with improving and submitting work to journals.

    Who is AI Fellowship Programme for?

    Best for

    Students with foundational Python or AI experience who want to lead a substantial individual project with expert guidance.

    Not ideal if

    You want an introductory coding course, a group-led project or guaranteed catch-up classes after missed sessions.

    Is AI Fellowship Programme worth it?

    The program may be worthwhile for a motivated student who already has the technical foundation to use sustained mentorship well. Its strongest value lies in the combination of project ownership, expert troubleshooting and a tangible final output.

    The fee is substantial, and the quality of the outcome will depend heavily on the student's initiative between mentor meetings. Optional academic credit also requires separate enrolment and a processing fee, so it should be treated as an extra rather than the main reason to join.
