As a part of the partnership, SET University and Fisher Center for Business Analytics at the University of California, Berkeley are launching a course — Leading the Confidence in the AI World.
Leading with Confidence in the AI World – Empowering Women with Business Analytics and Machine Learning. It’s a free 3-day course by the Berkeley Alliance for Inclusive AI to empower the participants with the power of generative AI in business analytics.
The applications are open for Ukrainian women leading impact-driven projects in economical or charity spheres. The organizers also invite for participation Ukrainian women who suffered from the war or became internally displaced and female representatives of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, National Guard of Ukraine, Special Operations Forces. The course aims to help them upgrade their professional skills and learn how to manage any data with lightning speed, while riding the AI wave instead of avoiding it.
The training will be led by Gauthier Vasseur, a data analytics and digital transformation expert. As a director and professor at the UC Berkeley Fisher Center for Business Analytics, Gauthier is training business leaders on the application of data science and analytics to business strategy. Gauthier has also joined SET University faculty as an Adjunct Professor and a board member.
Over the past 16 months, Ukraine has continued to confirm its status as a technological country with incredible potential. We have seen both examples of incredible resilience and breakthrough technologies. Therefore, it is important for us to learn from these examples and support the development of Ukraine’s tech sector. UC Berkeley’s partnership with SET University is the next exciting and important step in cooperation and strengthening Ukrainian specialists’ expertise, — adds Gauthier Vasseur, director and professor at the UC Berkeley Fisher Center for Business Analytics.

Master’s Programs
Both SET University and UC Berkeley teams are also working on the year-long program in innovations and entrepreneurship. Within this program, the students of SET University’s Master’s programs, as well as external applicants, can go through the full process of tech startup creation and join the lectures with experts from UC Berkeley and SET University. Within the program, the students with the most high-potential projects developed within a program are supposed to travel to California and get to know the tech community in Berkeley and Silicon Valley. The organizers also plan to foster collaboration between SET University and UC Berkeley students which might lead to co-founding a startup. Currently the program is under development and the organizers will share the information about it and open the registrations in a few months.
Recently SET University has launched its Master’s programs in cyber defense, as well as computer science and innovation engineering. All the students enrolled in Master’s programs can join the study with UC Berkeley Fisher Center for Business Analytics automatically without further application or selection process. You can learn more about Master’s programs here.
