Students taking part in the school have a unique opportunity to improve their skills in promising areas of modern computer technologies: machine learning, computer vision, and cognitive technologies. The school is focused on some highly relevant topics: computer vision, deep learning, neural networks, advanced software packages Intel® OpenVINO ™ and OpenCV.

It features a combination and transfer of practical experience of Intel engineers and academic experience of UNN teachers in the field of computer vision; traditional education (lectures and practical trainings) is combined with project work. School students have the opportunity to understand how project work is organized in large software development companies. Project curators are Intel engineers and UNN faculty members. The school has a flexible format of participation: full-time and part-time.
